fuel filter

[619_Cb9]

how often do you have to change the fuel filter?...i have a 92 accord with about 95000 miles on it...am i way past due for a filter change?

[accordztech]

depends, usually the interval is 30k. i didnt change mine till 150k...didnt notice too much of a difference, but in cold weather and bad gas u need it to change it more. the part is 23 dollars at the dealer.

imma change mine every 50

[619_Cb9]

i guess ill change mine when i get to the big 100,000

[slobluaccord]

619??? hey man, where about do you live in SD? I'm local too, and if you ever need ANY PARTS, i can get them real cheap.

IE-fuel filter=10 bucks

or whatever you need. What do you have done to your accord?

Fuel filter changes depend on the quality of the filter you buy. Honda filters are supposed to last like 30,000.

I know some cheap ones last only like 10-15,000

Honda OE, Kyosan, Nippon, and Atsugi/Paraut filters are all rated at 60,000 miles. I can save everyone from going to the dealer for it and send one out for $19 shipped. The part number is 16010-SM4-505

I cant even take out my old one, It probably has been on there for like 80,000 miles. I would brake the whole filter and the bolts attached to the firewall before that shit comes loose.

SHo Nuff- Your not trying hard enough!

Yes, they are a biotch to remove!

It MUST be done though!

Try putting a wrench on BOTH of the bolts on the fuel filter. When you turn one, the other wrench will stabilize the entire assembly and prevent damage.

Also try to SOAK the bolts in wd-40 or a better "freeing" lube.

Pretty much anything for maintenance and repair. Not alot on the performance front though.

I bought a purolater fuel filter a while back but I haven't installed it yet. Should I get rid of it in favor of a honda OE part or does it make much of a difference? Just curious.
