It's a non-serviceable item for the 98-02 4 cyl. So there's just the strainer in the tank.

Not exactly "non-servicable" but there IS NO filter in 1998-2002 Accord in USA. Only the strainer in the fuel tank which you don't routinely replace. The only time you should consider replacing the strainer is if you actually measure low fuel pressure at the fuel rail.

After dealing with a hard/slow start condition for a month or so. Replacing the fuel pump, fuel regulator and plugs (they all were due anyway!)

After talking to mechanics and a crap load of online research.

I finally figured out there is a fuel filter on the 98 Accord Coupe V6. It's in the plastic assembly that the pump gets mounted into.

It's considered non serviceable but mine had over 200k miles on it... it needed servicing!

Honda calls it a "Filter Set, Fuel" prt# 16010S84A01. I bought the Beck Arnley version for about $50 I think you can find it even cheaper at places like Rock Auto. .

You also have to transfer the float assembly and clips that attach the input and output hoses on top of the assembly.

If you're comfortable working on your car doing a little more than an oil change, it's actually an easy job.. If you do it your self be VERY VERY careful gas is REALLY flammable! There are how tos on YouTube etc...

Mary, if you’re asking me.. no the filter is in the plastic housing in the tank that holds the pump and related parts. The strainer is in the tank too.

stick your head under your driver side front door. You should be able to see the fuel tank and some lines comming from it heading towards the engine. The fuel filter should look like a small soda can in one of those lines. Takes two open-end wrenches, and a bucket to catch extra gas (don't smoke while doing this...)

The fuel filter on 98s is part of the fuel pump--non serviceable item. I confirmed this with the repair shop.
