Okay maybe this time it'll work....
Hey, i need to know how to install a fuel filter on my 94 dx. i dont have a lift or access to one so i cant get under the car. It seems it's pretty tight in there so i just need some tips on how to remove it and install a new one. Thanks

ive changed plenty of fuel filter on my ae92 corolla when i had it.but then i tried changing the fuel filter on my 95 accord and its a *****. can get to it from the bottom to loosen up the bottom bolt. but the best trick ive used was getting fuel filter clamps off the firewall and of course the top fuel line of the top of the fuel filter duh. then get a wrench on the bottom bolt coming from the top of the engine. you wont have any room to move the wrench, so just let it hold the bolt on the bottom and the turn/unscrew the filter from the bolt. i didnt have any luck it must have thread lock on mine.

the only way you can get to it is from the top , cause i tried from the bottom and the access is small from the bottom unless i have a speical tool. but the top is just the matter of getting room to turn the wrench. if you get a crow foot wrench then that will help alot.
