Step by Step!

Do you have a Honda GCV160 engine on your lawn mower? Is there oil on the left side of your mower deck? Don't know where it's coming from?

The engine could be leaking oil from the governor shaft!

For whatever reason, Honda decided not to install governor shaft seals at the factory on these older GCV160 engines. However, they do install them on all new GXV160 engines.

You can use that same exact governor shaft seal they use on the newer GXV engines, to fix that annoying oil leak on your GCV engine!

Today I'll be showing you step by step how to remove the governor arm, install the seal, reinstall the governor arm, and how to properly set the governor on a Honda GCV160 engine!

Parts used: Honda 91231-891-003 oil seal (6x11x4 seal, not bearing).
