HOODELL 4 Pack GX270 Air Filter for Honda GX240 8HP GX 270 9HP Engine, Professional EG3500X 17210-ZE2-505 17210-ZE2-822 17210-ZE2-515 Air Filter

What It Is

This is a 4-pack of replacement air filters designed for Honda GX240 (8HP) and GX270 (9HP) engines. Commonly used in pressure washers, generators (like the EG3500X), log splitters, and other commercial-grade equipment powered by these Honda engines.

Fitment & Compatibility

• Engine models: Honda GX240 (8HP) and GX270 (9HP).
• OEM cross-reference numbers: 17210-ZE2-505, 17210-ZE2-822, 17210-ZE2-515.
• What to check: Measure your existing filter – this is a rectangular foam element (approx. 5.5” x 3.5” x 1.5”). Ensure your engine uses a foam filter, not a paper pleated type. Verify your engine’s model number (stamped on the valve cover or blower housing) matches GX240 or GX270.
• Not compatible with: GX200, GX390, or non-Honda clone engines without verifying dimensions.

Key Things to Know

• Quality vs. OEM: Aftermarket foam density and fit are slightly less precise than Honda OEM, but adequate for most homeowner/semi-pro use. Expect 80-90% of OEM filtration performance.
• Installation: Tool-free – remove the air filter cover, swap the foam element, and reinstall. Rinse and dry the foam (don’t wring) if cleaning; replace every 100 hours or annually.
• Common gotcha: Over-oiling the foam (if you apply oil) can choke the engine. Use only a light coating of foam filter oil or no oil if the original was dry. Check the cover gasket – this pack does not include a gasket.
• 4-pack value: Good for maintaining multiple machines or keeping spares on hand. Each filter is individually wrapped.

Should You Buy It

Buy this if you own a Honda GX240 or GX270 engine and want a budget-friendly, multi-pack option for routine filter swaps. It’s a solid choice for homeowners and light commercial use where OEM-grade precision isn’t critical. Skip it if you need exact OEM fitment for heavy-duty or professional equipment – invest in a single Honda OEM filter instead.
