Default accord gas tank work on prelude?

i have a 94 prelude s that sat in a yard for the past 9 years, i pulled the motor and rebuilt the bottom end to freshen it up. dumped the old gas and the tank is full of rust, i replaced the fuel pump, fuel filter, and cleaned the injector filters, i primed the lines with the fuel rail un-bolted until all the gas was clean coming through. every couple daysthe injectors and filter are stopped back up with rusty mud and im tired of it, hard to find a prelude tank where i live so i was wandering if the accord tank is the same or would work?

Accord:



Prelude:



They look somewhat similar in shape, but the connections are in different places, so I would say you would have a hard time using an Accord tank. Can you not find any Preludes in a junkyard near you?

Yeah there's no prelude's at any junk yards within an hour and a half away. But there's plenty of accords. I searched online for an hour and couldn't find any that way either

i always use www.car-part.com

how far are you from Kannapolis, NC? Beaver's Honda Salvage has your tank for $50. They said that they ship...I'm sure it won't be cheap, but you can give them a call.
1-800-932-8690

There are other places in NC, but the price steadily goes up.
