The built up pressure is about 6 p.s.i., you can relief the pressure by first unscrewing your gas cap and that familiar "hiss" sound is the pressure escaping from the tank. The fuel filter is in the engine compartment on the passenger side mounted on the firewall. You should see 2 hoses. You'll need a 10mm & 17mm socket & wrench. You should see a small scew (10mm) on top of the hoses. There's residual pressure in the filter so you'll need a rag to mop up any gas that spills over. Take off the hoses (17mm) but be careful not to loose any of the brass washers on the top & bottom of the hose. Take off the mount if it helps you repositon & replace the filter. Screw everything back and that's it!
An '80 prelude still on the road? The filter should be very simple. Loosen the fuel line clamps, pull the old out, put the new one in, making sure the direction of flow is correct. Tighten up the hose clamps, run the engine and check for leaks at the fittings.
SOURCE: not getting power to fuel pump
You won't get any voltage to the fuel pump, until you "crank" the engine. It picks up a signal from the distributor which then talks to the ECM telling the car to turn the fuel pump on. The main relay is bad about going out on Honda's but they usually cool down and work, until you shut the car off. I'm leaning more towards a bad distributor.

SOURCE: 1989 honda prelude no fuel getting to injectors
probably the main relay. under the drivers side dash
SOURCE: have a 1989 honda prelude si cant find fuel filter
Carbureted engines: Two filters; a small one is in the fuel line under the hood; a larger one is located at the rear, just inboard of the left rear wheel.
Fuel-injected engines: the filter is located in the engine compartment, against the firewall, just to the left (as you face the engine) of the throttle housing, and slightly lower (follow the fuel line from your fuel rail, where your injectors are, back to it). It has two fuel lines (in and out) going to it, and it is held in place by a clamp which bolts it to the firewall.
Hope this helps you find it.
SOURCE: my 1998 gen 5 honda prelude wont start. It seems
could be all of the above. what you need to do is verify fuel pressure with a gauge set. or you can try a small spray of ether engine starter. if the engine starts and then stalls you know its something relating to fuel. but without a gauge its going to be impossible to determine which part
