strong fuel smell from the underside of the car, trust your instincts you have a fuel leak. on this 01 civic it was leaking from the fuel pump top housing due to a hair line crack. 01-05 civic its a common problem
An easy job. Thanks for the video. Saved my pops from taking the car to an auto shop even though it was pissing fuel from the top of the assembly.. The car has done a lot and held up after 21 years.
Thank you, bro. This video helped a lot.
Hi. At my Honda i smell fuel outside the car sometimes. Not from the cabin inside. That happend from the time i changed fuel pump to my mechanic.
Help me out most definitely
That rubber seal is troublesome
Thanks for the video it was very informative
Hot tip for newcomers: Don't take out the fuel pump relay. It's a pain in the ass and might break. Just remove the fuse and the negative terminal.
Definitely going to use this to help me change out my fuel pump. I don't trust mechanic shops because I am female and know I would get ripped off. Also what is a recommended mask to wear? I am almost 5 months pregnant and just want to take some precautions.
I'm not sure what mask to recommend, but I will tell you to work in an open space and away from heat since your dealing with fuel. I have used a respirator before and those work will too, like the ones they used for painting.
@@is350fsport3 Thank you so much for taking time to respond and I will be sure to do that. 😊
does this car have multiple filters? like one in the engine bay that increases pressure and results with the filter in the tank cracking. Maybe a high flow fuel might help relieve that.
No this one only has the filter in the tank with the fuel pump.
@@is350fsport3 Is it possible to replace the filter only, or necessary to change the entire pump?
@@byrondean i don't hink the filter is available to buy on its own, you can only buy it with the pump as a unit.
You have to put the big rubber gasket on the new unit first. This had me wanting to squeeze the new unit into the hole with gasket attached...it was a fight. After you get the unit to squeeze through the opening, install the rubber gasket to the tank. Then push the new unit into the installed gasket. Hope this helps
Or, you could just replace the filter. Honda 16010-S5A-932 Filter Set.
A cheaper way is just to epoxy the top of it its cheaper works great
Watched a few videos and i had the same problem with the black ring that locks it into place just placed the old one on and first spin it locked, new one for some reason wasnt working lol
