Default 1986 Honda Accord Fuel Filter Location

Just bought this vehicle for the kid and new to Honda cars. Seems to be some confusion on location of fuel filter and if there is one or two. Assistance on how many and where would be appreciated.

Thanks
Rich

Being a DX I can assume it is a crab'd model.

That would mean there are two fuel filters. One is under the hood - red factory hose running almost over the top of the brake booster, secondary filter.

The primary one is in the back just inside of the left/divers rear tire.....I found it better to remove the rear tire to get to it. Once the tire is off, just to the inside of the body there are two 10mm headded bolts holding a "cage" to the body. Remove those and the cage and filter will lower down. Remove the metal cage from the filter - if the filter is OE style ther are two clips holding the filter into the cage.

Need more detail or pic's, let me know.

My pleasure. Hope it works out for you. I've changed a few of these on my old 3rd gens.

Again if you need pic's and that let me know.
