There are many reasons to insist on genuine Honda engines — reasons like less down time, lower costs of ownership and better performance. As the world's largest engine manufacturer, Honda offers more engine experience than anyone, experience born on racetracks and roadways around the globe. Honda has a well-earned reputation for engine quality and performance. When you choose a Honda engine, or a product powered by Honda, you know what you're getting: an engine you can count on, now and in the future.
The Honda GX Series OHV commercial-grade engine is designed to perform in the most demanding commercial applications and has set the industry standard for reliability and durability. It's the preferred engine for construction equipment, pressure washers, compressors, go-karts, log splitters and more.
Better fuel efficiency. Higher power output. Quieter performance. Easier use. No matter how you define superior engine performance, Honda engines set the standard, with best-in-class engineering and technology.
Honda engines are renowned for being consistently easy to start. With a unique automatic mechanical decompression system, heavy-duty recoil ropes and advanced variable ignition timing, Honda engines are designed with quick, easy starts in mind.
Honda is committed to producing one engine for use in all 50 states. Honda engines meet the new, more stringent CARB emission requirements, and will be ready for the future lower EPA and CARB standards as they are introduced. Additionally, Honda engines meet CARB exhaust emission requirements without the use of a catalytic converter.
Honda sets the standard for reliable, hard-working engines, built with high-quality components designed for optimum performance in the harshest environments. Honda stands behind its engines with an industry-leading 3-year limited commercial warranty on all GX engines 100cc and larger.
Honda understands the importance of getting you back to work quickly. Honda has a vast nationwide support network of over 14,000 dealers. From parts to service, Honda engine dealers are there to assist you whenever and wherever you need it.
