Honda GX160 Engine with Electric Start - GX160QXE

Honda has been known for decades now for providing its professional customers with high performance, reliable engines for their equipment all over the world. The Honda GX160QXE Gas Engine with Electric Start lives up to those standards, now featuring lower noise levels, lower vibration, and lower emissions, all without having to sacrifice performance or power output.

The electric starting system will benefit those who find it hard to start your engine during the cold winter months. Rather than having to yank on the cord to get the engine started, enjoy the ease of just having to push a button. This helps save your arm from strain.

This Honda GX160QXE Gas Engine is commonly found on pump-motor combos assembled by Rittenhouse featuring the Hypro D30 and D403 Diaphragm Pumps, Udor Kappa 40 and Kappa 43 Diaphragm Pumps, and more. They are also commonly used on pressure washers, generators, water pumps, tillers, cultivators, agricultural equipment, construction and industrial equipment, commercial lawn and garden equipment, and much more.

The new design of the Honda GX160 series engines result in better fuel economy than ever before. The OHV design increases efficiency and optimal power transfer, while the high compression ratio provides better fuel efficiency. Precision engineered components result in lower vibration, reduced piston weight and precisely balanced crankshaft result in lower engine vibration, and the ball bearing supported crankshaft provides increased stability. New enhancements made to the muffler, breather valve, and case cover help reduce noise levels, while lightweight, noise-reducing materials reduce mechanical noises.
