Okay, I REALLY need some help here. I need most if not all of the fuel filler parts from the filler neck to the gas tank for my Dad's '90 Civic wagon. I wouldn't ask here, but I've looked everywhere, and have had no luck. So I'm hoping you guys can help me out. I could probably make something, but my Dad lives out of town and I won't have the car long or my normal access to tools. Thanks in advance.
Here's a link to the parts explosion:
We have one of these as a lemons car, and the wagon bits are hard to find, with the 4wd bits being close to unobtanium. I'm sourcing 4wd specific bits now for crash repair, and the best source I have found is the hondacivicwagon.com forum. There are usually a few being parted out there.
Sadly, we threw out our fuel filler neck 2 months ago when we put in the fuel cell.
Good luck!
YOU DID WHAT????
Thanks for the info. Do you happen to know if the 4WD filler neck is any different from the FWD version?
If I make it to the pull and pay in CIncy this weekend, I'll keep an eye out. Seems like those weren't hard to find in the yards a few years ago, but I barely see them now.
In reply to eastsidemav:
Thanks, I'd appreciate that. Let me know. Maybe in Cinci the neck won't be rusted out like this one.
I'd check to see if these were part of a recall. Accords of the same period (86-89, unsure of the affected years) had their filler necks recalled. One of the forum members had theirs replaced by Honda under recall just a couple years back.

The link above looks like to a 84-87 Civic.Might want to check that.
I am 99 percent sure the filler neck is unique to the wagon. In the picture below, you can see how the gas tank is formed around the driveshaft.
I might still have the filler neck. I will look tonight.

Thanks. You are correct about the part explosion - Not sure how that happened, but I fixed it.
Please let me know if you have one. I'll not only buy it from you, but I'll help push your car back over on its tires!
Thanks again!
It looks like most all the parts are available from Majestic Honda in the link you posted, why not just buy them there?
In reply to stuart in mn:
The two parts I need the most (#7 and #10) are not available from them any longer.
In reply to bravenrace:
I tossed the fuel neck. It must of been rusty, because I would have kept it. I kept everything else.

Thanks for looking. At the moment I don't know exactly what is good and bad. I just know it leaks. It's kind of a PIA to get to, so my thinking was that if one piece is rusted out, the other pieces likely aren't great. If I'm going to replace one part, I might as well replace it all.
With that in mind, are you interested in selling what you do have? Is it in good shape? Let me know.
Thanks.
