How to Replace My 1995 Honda Accord Fuel Pump
by Zyon SilketMost Honda automobiles have an access panel that allows you to remove the fuel pump without dropping the gas tank out of the vehicle. The 1995 Honda Accord has such a setup. This makes replacing the fuel pump much easier. Just keep in mind that when you remove the bulkhead, you will be among flammable gas fumes. Take caution not to smoke or create sparking while you have the bulkhead open.
Step 1
Open the trunk and lift up the carpet. Locate the 6-inch round plate with three screws in it.
Step 2
Remove the screws from the round plate using a screwdriver and remove the plate.
Step 3
Disconnect the wiring harness that connects to the bulkhead under the plate.
Step 4
Turn the bulkhead counterclockwise and remove it. The pump pulls out with the bulkhead.
Step 5
Loosen the jam nut that secures the pump to the bulkhead with a wrench.
Step 6
Place the new pump onto the bulkhead and secure it using the jam nut and the wrench.
Step 7
Place the bulkhead onto the tank and turn it clockwise to lock it in place.
Step 8
Reconnect the wiring harness to the bulkhead.
Step 9
Place the cover over the bulkhead and secure it using the three screws and the screwdriver.
Step 10
Place the carpet back over the cover.
