The Honda 90043-Z8D-010 Fan Cover Stud Bolt is a genuine OEM fastener designed for a wide range of Honda horizontal and vertical shaft engines, lawn mowers, and single-stage snow blowers. As a direct OEM replacement, this stud bolt is manufactured to the same specifications as the original hardware, ensuring correct thread engagement and clamping geometry right out of the box. This part is listed for GC160, GC190, GCV160, GCV190, GS160, GS190, GSV190 engines, HRC216, HRR216, HRS216, and HRX217 lawn mowers, and HS520 and HS720 single-stage snow blowers — verify your unit's serial number against the fitment table to confirm this is the correct stud for your application. Because Honda supersedes hardware at serial breaks, matching your serial number is the surest way to get the right bolt the first time.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Hardware — sourced directly from Honda, this stud bolt meets the exact thread form and dimensional tolerances specified for the fan cover mounting application on these engines and machines.
- Broad Fitment Coverage — listed for GC, GCV, GS, and GSV series engines as well as HRC216, HRR216, HRS216, HRX217 lawn mowers, and HS520 and HS720 single-stage snow blowers, including both horizontal and vertical shaft variants.
- Serial Number Verification Recommended — Honda updates hardware specifications at production serial breaks; always cross-reference your machine's serial number with the fitment table before ordering.
- Secure Fan Cover Retention — a correctly fitted stud bolt holds the fan cover firmly in place, maintaining proper airflow around the engine. A stripped, broken, or missing stud can allow the cover to shift or come free, disrupting cooling and exposing rotating components.
A fan cover stud bolt is a threaded fastener that anchors the engine's fan cover — also called the recoil starter housing or blower housing — to the engine block. The fan cover directs cooling air drawn in by the flywheel fan across the cylinder fins, and the stud bolt is what keeps that cover seated correctly under vibration and load. When this fastener strips, breaks, or goes missing, the cover can move out of position, disrupting the airflow path that prevents the engine from overheating during operation.
