1988 Prelude S
 
I have a 1988 Prelude S. Does anyone have any suggestions/advice on
changing the fuel filters? I have changed my plugs and I still have a
little hesitation when I accelerate. This is the model that has two
carburetors so I hope I don't have to do much else. Thanks for any help
anyone can give.

If the hesitation happens when you punch it to pass at highway speed,
then it may be the fuel filter. If it stumbles at low speeds, it has
nothing to do with the fuel filter. Have you checked _very_ carefully
that one of the (hundred or so) vacuum hoses haven't developed a leak
where they bend / attach? Ever run some Gasohol thru it for cleaning sake?
