If it`s a D14Z4 or D14Z2 engine, filter is under the bonnet.

I'm way past that stage,I shall let you know in the morning where it is,next major job on this car in a couple of months is cambelt and renew all the brakes.
Title: Re: Honda civic fuel filter location
Post by: Webby the Bear on 09 August 2013, 22:53:24
Let me know when that is Martin if you want help and company.... really need to be getting myself familiar with timing belt jobs  :y :y :y
Title: Re: Honda civic fuel filter location
Post by: martin42 on 09 August 2013, 22:58:04
Webby,might be worth you picking up 2nd hand Haynes manuals,cheap,plenty of reading time and will help when servicing other cars.
Title: Re: Honda civic fuel filter location
Post by: Webby the Bear on 09 August 2013, 23:03:56
yeah I've got a few now mate. tbh when it comes to servicing (fluids, filters, plugs, brakes etc) I now don't need any help. very confident with just cracking on (apart from those ford brake shoes... but at least I wont make that mistake again  ;D).

but as said timing belts I need lots more real world experience. I did timing belt on ralf but that was aided by mark dtm's cambelt dvd. and ive done a few on engines that are on stands but I want the buzz of doing them and getting to turn the engine on and seeing if I make anything explode witnessing the fruits of my labour  ;D ;D ;D ;D

next course starting in sept covers lots of timing belt replacements too so looking forward to that.

obviously your fingers were where they shouldn't have been.  ::) ::)

Capri/Cortina gearboxes were p*** easy to lift into place ......... or was that because I was much younger & stronger?  ??? ;D ;D

And the location of the filter is not in the engine bay,after taking car for a test drive,the service has improved the engine,no more hesitation and holding back on power,see how that goes for her lol
Title: Re: Honda civic fuel filter location
Post by: Webby the Bear on 10 August 2013, 09:10:38
fair enough. but if you wanted to do it I found a pic showing that the fuel pump is i think under rear seats and totally accessable.

of course if its not you didn't read this message  ;D ;D ;D

£35. WOW!  :o :o :o

I read that the ones that are in the fuel tank/on top of the fuel pump are generally not supposed to be serviced. i.e. sealed for life unless theres a problem... is that perhaps why its so expemsive  :-\
