With or without valve cost? Although all the same, heavenly, in Aoyama Motors only diagnostics would cost you 1400 rubles.

2SERVER77, a thousand for everything. Official dealers requested: 580 for a valve, 300 for delivery of a valve (I don’t know why it is considered separately, they probably gathered for me personally from Japan), and 1600 for work. So it seems like I saved it.

Honda GX160 engines are often brought in, which smoke and consume a large amount of oil. The reason usually lies in improper operation (work without an air filter, work with a very dirty filter, work without maintenance for a large number of motor hours)

Reasons for engine smoke.

With prolonged use of the engine without an air filter, there is an increased wear of the cylindrical group. As a result, the oil scraper rings do not cope with their work and, as a result, oil enters the combustion chamber, and smoke forms during combustion. In this case, you will need to replace the rings.

Putting new rings on a worn out cylinder - it is possible to remove the breakage for a while, but this will not solve the problem as a whole.

Frequent questions related to minor breakdowns of Honda engines, which, if desired, can be eliminated with your own hands.

1. The engine will not start:
Almost all Honda engines have oil level protection in the crankcase. If the oil level is insufficient, the ignition system is blocked and there is no spark. Always check the oil level before starting work.
The next reason for the absence of a "spark" may be a malfunction of the spark plugs, so it is advisable to have them in stock.
If all of the above does not help, there is a "spark" but the spark plug is dry, we climb into the carburetor. During long-term storage of equipment, gasoline decomposes and deposits in the form of plasticine or glue are formed in the carburetor, which clog the main fuel jet. It is necessary to remove the carburetor, disassemble, and rinse all parts well. Particular attention should be paid to the fuel jet.

2. Honda engine emits black smoke and develops insufficient power.
The reason is that the air filter is heavily clogged. Depending on the type of air filter, the paper filter must be replaced with a new one, and the sponge filter can be washed and reused.

3. Gasoline in oil:
The engine starts, runs for a few minutes, then heavy smoke appears from the muffler and the engine stops.
Gasoline enters the oil when the carburetor shut-off needle does not hold the gasoline pressure.
It is possible that dirt has got under the needle in the carburetor and the valve does not hold. During transportation, the fuel cock did not close and the breathing valve in the gas tank cap did not work.
