We have had to replace the fuel pump, but that was easy to do. We went to the public library, borrowed the book that told how to fix it. It cost $60.00 for the pump and less than 1 hour of time to install it!
I bought this car as a winter "beater" because my Cougar handles so poorly in the snow. I drive this car more often than my real car.
This car handles well in the snow and slush.
I feel confident and safe while riding and driving it.
I am amazed at all the power options this car came with for the year 1985.
I want to change my fuel pump on my 1985 accord, but cannot find where pump is located on car.
Fuel pump replacement: Test first. With the driver door open, crank the car. You should hear a clicking noise from behind the left rear tire. The pump is located forward of the left rear wheelwell. To remove, you don't have to take the tire off, it just makes it easier to get at, unless you have access to a lift. Jack car securely, remove left rear tire, and just forward of the wheel opening on the underside of the car is the pump. It has a cover over it held on by 2 10mm screws. Be sure to replace the filter while you are there.
