The Honda 91252-894-004 Oil Seal (25.4X40X7) is a genuine OEM replacement designed for GV200 and GXV160 vertical shaft engines, as well as HR216, HRA216, and HRC216 lawn mowers. As a direct OEM replacement, this seal matches the exact dimensional specification — 25.4 x 40 x 7 mm — that Honda engineering requires at this location. Verify your machine's serial number against the fitment table before ordering, as Honda supersedes seals at serial breaks and the correct part number depends on your production range.
Key Features
- OEM Dimensional Accuracy — at 25.4 x 40 x 7 mm, this seal matches Honda's exact specification, which is critical for an oil seal: even a slight dimensional mismatch will cause weeping or a full leak at the sealing surface
- Genuine Honda OEM Part — sourced directly from Honda, carrying part number 91252-894-004, so there is no guesswork about specification or fitment
- Broad Fitment — listed for GV200 and GXV160 vertical shaft engines and HR216, HRA216, and HRC216 lawn mowers; confirm your serial number against the fitment table to ensure this is the correct seal for your unit
- Leak Prevention — a degraded or damaged oil seal allows engine oil to escape past the shaft, leading to oil loss, contamination of surrounding components, and accelerated wear if the oil level drops unnoticed
An oil seal is a precisely sized ring that sits around a rotating shaft — in this case on a vertical crankshaft — and prevents engine oil from escaping past the shaft and into areas where it can cause damage or contamination. The seal maintains a consistent barrier between the pressurized oil inside the engine and the outside environment. When an oil seal hardens, cracks, or wears out of round, it loses its ability to hold that barrier, resulting in oil seepage that can foul external components, reduce the engine's oil level, and ultimately lead to serious internal engine damage if left unaddressed.
