i wouldnt waste your time. most likely its fine.. they are very complicated to remove and install by unexperienced people(not saying you are, im just guessing because u ask)

Let's see here, 1st off you should change that fuel filter around every 30,000 miles or say 24 months.
I feel it is a great idea seeing as tho my 91'Accord Ex has about 246,000 miles and I havent replaced the fuel pump yet.

Make sure your engine is cool
Relieve the fuel system pressure
Dont Smoke Any Ciggys
Reinstall the filter
Start the engine and chek for leaks
