Can't find fuel pump (pics inside)

if its no in the tank it will bea electric inline pump just infront of the tank under the vehicle.

The problem is the carb version was Japan only, so most English service manuals won't apply

Might be helpful to get a manual for an earlier Civic as the came with carbs in more markets and the setup should be similar.

I doubt it's in there. I have a fuel pump off a carbed honda and it looks like an SU pump, and it's externally mounted.

where abouts is it mounted clark20!
clark20, Mar 12, 9:01pm
No I don't have a car, just the pump, and it's not in-tank mounted

Just put car up on hoist if you can & follow fuel line. Not all externals are closest to tank.

mate a carburetor has no fuelpump inside the tank. your fuelpump is mounted on the engine most likely on the head and is a mechanical membrane low pressure pump only injected have pumps inside a tank.

yup thats of my engine.
intrade, Mar 12, 10:08pm
above is what 90% of mechanical membrane fuelpumps look like.you might as well wirebrush your petrol tank and give it a coat of mat-black before you screw it back up and inspect inside the tank for dirt. and if the pickups are not broken off or coroded in the tank
dent, Mar 12, 10:13pm
I cant say ive seen a honda of that age with a mechanical fuel pump even with carb versions. I thort they all had low pressure electric pumps.
intrade, Mar 12, 10:18pm
civic was 94 model membrane pump on head just like his. also you might confuse a single point injector with a carburetor as they look like acarb from outside.!

Thats certainly a fuel pump . but it looks like it has been disconnected/unused for some time. One wonders what has been pumping the fuel since then
intrade, Jul 15, 11:17pm
its why i asked if it was his engineits probably poked.
he will have to go along the fuel lines to see if it got blocks etc and also blow the lines clean with compressed air before refitting thepainted fuel-tank.
