The Honda 56160-V15-003 Plug Bolt is a genuine OEM component designed for BF9, BF15, and BF20 portable outboard motors, BFP8, BFP9, BFP15, and BFP20 portable outboard motors, and HS1336 and HSM1336 two-stage snow blowers. As a factory-original part, it matches Honda's exact specifications for thread form, shank dimensions, and sealing performance — ensuring a proper, leak-free fit without improvisation. Confirm your model and serial number against the fitment table before ordering, as Honda sometimes supersedes hardware across production runs.
Key Features
- Genuine Honda OEM Hardware — sourced directly from Honda's parts supply, this plug bolt carries the exact thread specification and head geometry Honda built the application around, so it seats and seals the way the original did
- Broad Fitment Across Two Machine Classes — a single part number covering portable outboard motors including the BF9, BF15, BF20, BFP8, BFP9, BFP15, and BFP20, as well as HS1336 and HSM1336 two-stage snow blowers; use part number 56160-V15-003 and your serial number to confirm the correct application
- Serial Number Verification Recommended — Honda updates hardware at production breaks, so cross-check your machine's serial number against the fitment table to ensure this bolt is current for your unit
- Maintains Fluid Retention — a properly torqued plug bolt prevents fluid seepage at the port it closes; a loose, damaged, or incorrect bolt risks leaks that can lead to fluid loss and unplanned service
A plug bolt is a threaded fastener used to seal an access or drain port in a housing — on outboard motors this typically closes an oil or fluid passage in the gearcase or engine block, while on two-stage snow blowers it seals a corresponding port in the drivetrain or gearbox housing. When the bolt is correctly seated and torqued, it creates a secure, fluid-tight closure that prevents contamination from entering and lubricant from escaping. A damaged, cross-threaded, or missing plug bolt compromises that seal, leading to fluid loss and potential internal damage during operation.
