Default Fuel filler tube

I'm getting a 94 Honda Accord tomorrow. It needs a new fuel filler tube. Have not been able to find anything on this. Do I have to drop the fuel tank? How is this fasented to tank? Will I be able to get old one off the gas tank? What all parts do I need? Any help on this will be greatly appreciated. thanks

Go to Majestic Honda and look up "Fuel Tank" for your vehicle. Looks like the Fuel Inlet is a group of parts you purchase as a unit, about $100+shipping.

You may be able to purchase used at a local salvage yard much cheaper, but may suffer from same problem you have. Check car-part.com.

good luck

Default How to

Thanks for the post. I think I can find the part, my question is how do I change it? What do I need to do?

I don't think that you have to drop the tank to do this. There is a plastic cover that has to be removed, then you should be able to access the hose.

You can download the 94 shop manual from the Online Manuals thread in the DIY section. The Honda Tech link has the 94 shop manual. You may have to change the display options at the bottom to show all of the threads to see the Online Manuals thread.

On the main forum list, its called "Do-It-Yourself Section". You probably have to go to the bottom (Display Options) & set the time "From the Beginning".

Default Fuel filler tube

Can't find anything in the service manual about replacing the fue filler tube. Mine is rusted out. Can find the part, but not what I need to do to fix it. Do I need to drop the fuel tank? How is it attached to the fuel tank? etc. thanks ... Bill

There's a cover inside your rear wheel well (#27 in the picture) then you should be able to reach the hose clamps etc. I've never done that, but it kinda looks like you don't have to drop the tank.

This is better in General Tech, so I'll move it.

I copied the above two posts to the original thread to keep things organized. I deleted the new thread you created.

Page 11-98 should show you how to remove the plastic cover. I thought the filler tube was a rubber tube. Which part number below is the part that is bad on your car?

I thought jumper hoses (11 and 15) would bridge between new part from filler neck to hoses on to tank pipes. When i removed my fuel tank, I disconnected from filler neck by removing these two hoses.

Never personally removed this upper filler neck from a car.

good luck
