Haha yeah can be a pain. Especially if you have the rear tray installed. I removed mine so it's fairly easy to access it except for the fact I have a hardtop on now with the soft top down lol.

Yeah just keep track of mileage. I always fill up after about 200 miles regardless if the car is almost empty or not yet. Usually leaves a few gallons in there still.

Nope. As tempting as using the nice new filter may be, it is the devil. I made the mistake using the one that came with the Aeromotive. I had to pull the pump and swap out the filter back to OEM within 30 min. When I replaced the Aeromotive with a Walbro last weekend, I swapped over the OEM filter that I put on the Aeromotive. If you have to have a new filter, Id buy a new OEM Honda one (Which would probably cost as much as the walbro). However, dont let the yelloish brown color of your OEM filer worry you. It is still good and like a bottle of wine, gets better with age. Ok not really, but it perfectly fine to reuse.

OT, sorry, but can you explain why you swapped an Aeromotive out for a Walbro? I always hear of people going the opposite direction (from Walbro to Aeromotive or Fullblown) and am interested to hear why you made the switch. Was it strictly to go to a higher flow pump?
