Default Picked up a Honda Fuel filter, am I missing something?


I just picked up an OEM fuel filter for my integra. See below:



I swear I was supposed to get 3 crush washers. 2 for the banjo fitting, and 1 was the lower hardline. I've got the two for the banjo fitting, but does the lower hardline even need a crush washer? There was another bag in with this filter, but it was empty. This is what leads me to believe it should have come with one. I'll go back to Honda, but they're closed by now.

Just go to pepboys or what is close to you and get another. Or you can see which one of the old ones are still good and just reuse that one. Those don't really get messed up anyway.

The two you see are for the bottom and top of the banjo fitting.

Is #12 the service bolt itself, or the washer?

you have everything you need, do not use teflon tape, there is no need to remove the service bolt. the washers are for the banjo bolt on the top of the filter, the feed line is just a tapered fitting like a brake line, just make sure it s tight, this should take you about 10 min to change

Yeah, do NOT use teflon tape on any of the fittings. These types of fittings (flare nut on the inlet and banjo on the outlet) do not use the threads to seal, so tape would cause problems in assembly.

That's right I forgot the bottom line is sorta like a compression fitting where it seals itself when you tighten it. But I forgot to tell you when you thread the bottom line back on make sure you take your time because it is very easy to cross-thread it. Just use your fingers to tighten it up until you can't do it anymore then use an open-end wrench to tighten it. Same goes for the top bolts as well.
