Honda Engines use a standard model naming convention.
Finding the Engine Model
To find the model number, look for a model number sticker on the engine.
All Honda engines model numbers start with the letter "G," such as "G100", "GX610", or
"GXV160."
This is the base engine model. The engine model and serial number should be adequate
for most of your needs.
However, if you need the detailed engine type, you can find an engine identification guide
here.

Finding the Engine Type Code
The engine type code is stamped into the side of the engine, usually close to the serial
number. Engine type codes may be up to 4 characters. If a code is less than 4 characters,
you may see asterisks as placeholders (i.e. an engine stamped with QX** is a QX type
engine.)
Finding the Engine Serial Number
The engine serial number is stamped into the side of the engine. All Honda engine serial
numbers have a 4 or 5 letter prefix followed by a 7 digit number.

When should the carburetor been replaced?
The purpose of a carburetor is to mix air and gas before the fuel goes to the engine. If the
engine won't start and the tank is full of fresh fuel or if the engine starts and then quickly
dies, the carburetor is likely the problem. Huztl provides an identical replacement for a
missing or a faulty assembly that was installed on a new unit.
What should I do to avoid buying the wrong carb?
Before purchasing a carburetor for your Honda Engine, please make sure to double-check
your engine model to ensure compatibility. It's crucial to verify the specific carburetor
requirements for your engine's type, models, and series number to avoid purchasing the
wrong one. Taking this extra step will save you time, money, and frustration. Remember,
accuracy is key when it comes to getting the right part for your Honda engine.
