Review on πŸ”§ High-performance FitBest Carburetor with Air Filter for Honda GX160/GX200 Engines | 5.5HP/6.5HP | Replaces 16100-ZH8-W61 by Mark Cole

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Fuel line guide carburetor base replacement:

The carburetor kit came with no papers or instructions. I was a bit skeptical at first when reading reviews of the intake manifold angle. I tried twisting the tube, as other reviewers have successfully done, but was afraid it would bend or break. After re-evaluating, I found that the plastic baseplate has a fuel line support/guide that redirects the fuel line to accommodate the angle of the fuel pickup tube. The housing to which the recoil is attached must be removed in order to replace the standard carburetor base with a new one included in the kit. This also gives you access to a fuel change which you may need as the original (mine) had a hard bushing and wouldn't work otherwise. Sorry for no photos during assembly. After assembly was complete, on the second pull the Honda GX200 started and ran great.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Upgradeable
