One of the most popular Honda horizontal engines on the market. This engine is powerful, easy to start, reliable, and a source of 4-stroke power that you can trust. This engine is commonly used on a range of pieces of equipment including pressure washers, tillers, agriculture equipment, forestry equipment, construction equipment, water pumps, and more.
If you have demanding conditions and need the best in the business then look no further than the Honda GX series! It features a digital CDI ignition system with variable timing, precision camshaft design for precise valve timing and OHV design which all combine for a more fuel-efficient, higher-performing engine.
This engine is smooth in operation with a forged steel crankshaft, helical-cut gears, and an improved camshaft and muffler that reduces overall engine noise. Protected by an oil alert and dual-element air cleaner you can be ensured Honda is doing the best to increase the durability of this engine.
A cast-iron cylinder bore means it can withstand long hours of use in some of the harshest conditions.
