And there goes all your loose change and fidgety little things you keep randomly throwing in the centre console thinking “ I’ll need that one day”. 😂😂😂👍👍👍. Thanks for the upload buddy. I’d never have guessed it was there. I think I’m going to invest in an extinguisher. 👍👍
@@jordan4541 filter was black, however the inside of the fuel tank was mint clean, so I think the colour in the filter was mainly due to fuel treatments over the years. That said the car feels smoother to drive tbh. 89000 miles.
"petert696: You can actually change just the filter and o rings, without the need to replace the whole unit." - erm......the vid clearly shows he's changed the filter and the O rings...
@Cab S erm not sure what video you are watching, but it clearly shows that he has purchased the whole assembly, as youcan see them side by side. What I'm saying is that you don't need to do that. Rather, you can buy just the filter element itself and reuse the entire assembly.Hope that makes sense.
@@petert696 It's one of those things where it's a lot of hazzle already, so might as well do it properly. The filters last a very long time and they are pretty cheap.
Thanks man I used your video to change my fuel filter you made it so easy to follow 👍 my car is running so much smoother now! Since I brought the car always had issue reversing would always struggle and I would need to put a lot of gas I thought it was due to the ishift gear box but now after the filter change its become really smooth. Also I did notice a lot of debri in the remaining fuel that came out of the filter as I poured it into a glass jar. Already subscribed to your channel, 🙌🙌
@@MMD-z6z Tbh if I could change that teabag filter I would but unfortunately I can't buy the filter on its own it only comes with the pump itself. Only place I found online was Ali Express for a few quid but I can't trust Chinese stuff so I didn't bother. All that said since I've changed the fuel filter my car has been running a lot smoother than before and not only that the mpg has improved as well as the range on a full tank from 320 miles on urban driving to 490 miles and the first time the car is showing 585 miles on motorway driving. My car was very sluggish and I had to push the gas paddle really hard prior to the filter change but not anymore. So I'm pretty pleased with that.. 🙂 Next I'm going to service the injectors and clean the throttle body and all the sensors....
I'm surprised the tea bag like gauze is not included in the kit, its the first line of defence to prevent debris from getting into the fuel pump/filter. A small part that prob cost peanuts yet Honda can't include it in the kit that would save a lot of headache WTF!!
Thanks for upload mate, the only one on yt that fits european models too. Any sort of precautions that you took (opening the tank plug etc)? Saw those metal springs on the canister..arent they dangerous when fiddling with the canister when trying to fit it back in the tank? Thanks!
Thanks! I am hesitating between an aftermarket filter and the genuine. Aftermarket is alot cheaper, but not sure about the reliability and if it comes with all the o-rings and gaskets. Anyone else got an aftermarket filter in their car?
Thanks for the how too video. But after watching you change all the parts over , you did not change the filter it's self. I though the filter was the small cloth type pillow at the base of the fuel pump. I'm wanting to do this myself and now I'm confused.
Great simple video, can you not just drain and clean the old filter somehow why its out? Like flushing petrol through it? I ask. Because in my honda service manual guide it states 'drain fuel filter' like every 10k miles or so....
Is it best to change it. Does it get clogged in time. Mine is a 59plate. Garage cost will be 100 to change part labour. They have said honda service don't recommend todo its a lifetime fuel filter. So confused weather todo it or not............
@@driftcarsjp hmm. You say that the fuel filter is not on service manual honda. There are arguments that as its petrol. And I always use v power that itl be clean. Further more honda hq and other sites have said that its all preference.......
Hello can someone help me I have a 07 hatchback 1.4 petrol are these the same feul filter position I bought the bigger fuel filter of thses thinking was in the back of car only two found out it wasn't is mine same position as this thanks and is it the small fuel filter thanks help mbe much appreciated
If your fuel is very low you will need to put 20 litres in it as if the fuel filter canister is empty and the fuel tank is low it won't suck up enough fuel to run. When your fuel tank is low the fuel pump canister will always have fuel in it this acts as a swirl pot so you don't run out of fuel when cornering. I hope that helps.
@@driftcarsjp thanks bro I started my vehicle I reopened again the fuel pump and notes The fuel regulator was out of its location and clip also so I installed again and my engine got started 😁
Great guide, thank you. Saved me a lot of swearing and cut fingers!
Great video thanks. Never seen a video on this for the fn2. 👍
Great video, I'm doing this on my fn2, hopefully it cures the part throttle pinking im getting.

Thanks bro u saved me from my boss with this video😂
Great how2, finally got around to doing this on my Gen8 1.8.
Was there much difference? Was the old filter clogged up and at how many miles?

@@petert696 You are supposed to change the whole thing. The plastic deteriorate over time as well and will crack.
@Xziriz yes that's up to the individual. I am just giving an alternative option.

Make sure you change the filter on the fuel pump - its pointless doing the Job otherwise lol 😆 😆

Great video. Inspired to change mine now.
Very informative video mate thanks.
love the videos keep it up
not a thriller but bloody hand to know mate rick leicester uk i've just bought an FN2
Thanks for upload mate, the only one on yt that fits european models too.
Any sort of precautions that you took (opening the tank plug etc)?
Saw those metal springs on the canister..arent they dangerous when fiddling with the canister when trying to fit it back in the tank?
Thanks!
No the springs just compress down so the pick up is at the bottom of the tank. There's not much tension on them..
Thanks! I am hesitating between an aftermarket filter and the genuine. Aftermarket is alot cheaper, but not sure about the reliability and if it comes with all the o-rings and gaskets. Anyone else got an aftermarket filter in their car?
Got the ring off with a flathead and a hammer in 5 minutes!
Thank you for this video. I got the 1.8r same body car. Fuel filter should be same place?
Yep
Man you rock ! I'm happy to see no need to remove the thank.. but how (when) do you know you need to change it ?
If your fn2 has done around 200000ks it's probably time to change it.
Thanks for watching...
Every 120.000 KM/ 6 years
Great video
Thanks for the how too video. But after watching you change all the parts over , you did not change the filter it's self. I though the filter was the small cloth type pillow at the base of the fuel pump. I'm wanting to do this myself and now I'm confused.
Hi that part is the strainer the filter is enclosed in the plastic housing.
@@driftcarsjp thanks😀
Awesome vid mate. Brilliant :)
I always you vpower in hioe it alwayssss cleans system. I wunder if its worth swapping the fuel like you mate.?
Are there any differences between before and after ?
Nup just the same. Just a good job to do..
When I'm foot flat in 3rd gear it won't go past 100km/h the rev range stops at 6,000rpm would that be the fuel filter??
Didnt get new wiring on fuel filter package, can i use old one?
Yes old one is fine. Just be careful with the plastic clips for the wiring as they get brittle from sitting in the fuel.
Hey mate I just bought the ryco in tank fuel filter remover would it fit the fn2 fuel filter I'm removing it tomorrow
It should fit most are similar sizes

Any filter that has been cleaning particles from fuel for over 10 years is going to have quite a bit of build up.

What was the milege of your one
@marunio12 it was around 160000ks when i had it

@driftcarsjp I am a Moderator on a UK based Civic Form, civinfo.com Would you mind if I link your Video on this in our How To Section?
No problem thanks for the support..
@@driftcarsjp thanks very much, is a very well put together tutorial.
Does any know how to replace the sender as my fuel gauge isn't registering
And I'm also having trouble in 5th and 6th gear the whole car shakes at 3,000rpm when I press the accelerator
Does it feel like a missfire?
@Driftcarsjp umm no not really just shakes the whole car
Can you please help me I did what you explained to me but when I start my engine it didn't start I tryed a lot but still the same
Double check you have the plugs and hoses on the correct way around.
@@driftcarsjp I checked everything is correct it got started for 5 seconds and it switched off
If your fuel is very low you will need to put 20 litres in it as if the fuel filter canister is empty and the fuel tank is low it won't suck up enough fuel to run. When your fuel tank is low the fuel pump canister will always have fuel in it this acts as a swirl pot so you don't run out of fuel when cornering.
I hope that helps.
@@driftcarsjp thanks bro I started my vehicle
I reopened again the fuel pump and notes The fuel regulator was out of its location and clip also so I installed again and my engine got started 😁
And when I'm foot flat it feels really weak
I cant believe he did all that and didn't change the main thing? The fuel Filter!!! OMG that's hilarious 😂 😂
What are you talking about? Do you actually know what part the fuel filter is? I think not..
