1996 Ford F-150 Fuel System

WHEN BOTH TANKS WERE FULL AND THE REAR TANK WAS USED THE FUEL WOULD LEAK FROM THE NECK OF THE FRONT TANK. *NLM RETURNED USPS, 2ND ATTEMPT MADE 06/08/07 FAILED. *LJ

DUAL TANK VALVE ALLOWS FUEL TO BE PUMPED INTO FRONT TANK UNTIL FUEL LEAKS OUT OF FILLER NECK. DT

WHEN PUMPING FUEL INTO ONE OF DUAL FUEL TANKS, ONE TANK OVERFLOWS INTO ANOTHER TANK THAT'S ALREADY FULL, CAUSING A FUEL SPILLAGE. *AK

SAME PROBLEM AS 1993 RECALL. NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID #01|008000. *AK

A PORTION OF THE UNUSED FUEL FROM REAR TANK TO BE RETURNED TO THE FRONT TANK, WHEN THIS OCCURRED THE CAPACITY OF THE FRONT TANK WAS EXCEEDED WHICH CAUSED FUEL SPILLAGE. DEALER NOTIFIED THAT VEHICLE YEAR WAS NOT INCLUDED IN RECALL. CONSUMER COULD SMELL GAS AT VARIOUS TIMES. SPILLED FUEL CAN RESULT IN A FIRE WHEN EXPOSED TO A SOURCE OF THE IGNITION. MANUFACTURER NOTIFIED BUT WAS NOT WILLING TO DO ANYTHING. *TT

REAR TANK IS PUMPING GAS TO FRONT TANK, CAUSING IT TO OVER FLOW OUT.*AK WHEN FILLING THE REAR TANK MOST OF THE FUEL WAS PUMPED INTO THE FRONT TANK CAUSING THE GAS CAP TO FLY OFF WHEN THE CONSUMER REMOVED IT. *MJ

WHEN SWITCHING TO FRONT TANK IT STARTED TO BUILD PRESSURE, AND GAS POUR OUT OF REAR TANK FILLER SPOUT. PLEASE PROVIDE ANY FURTHER INFORMATION.*AK

CONSUMER WAS TRAVELING ON HIGHWAY AND SMELLED GASOLINE.GAS GAUGE DIDN'T WORK. HE PULLED OVER, AND LIFTED HOOD. VEHICLE HAS TWO TANKS, AND FRONT TANK WAS FULL, GASOLINE WAS GOING INTO VAPOR RECOVERY . DEALERSHIP WAS AWARE OF PROBLEM. *AK

FUEL FROM THE REAR TANK FLOWS INTO THE FRONT TANK, THROUGH THE FUEL SYSTEM.*AK

THE TRUCK IS EQUIPPED WITH DUAL FUEL TANKS. WHEN BOTH TANKS ARE FILLED AND THE REAR TANK IS SELECTED IT PUMPS GAS INTO THE ALREADY FULL FRONT TANK, CAUSING IT TO RUN OUT OF THE FUEL CAP DOWN THE SIDE OF THE TRUCK ONTO THE GROUND. I FEEL THIS COULD EASILY CAUSE A FIRE YET HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO GET THE FORD DEALER TO REPAIR THIS PROBLEM. I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO USE THE REAR TANK FOR OVER TWO YEARS. IS THIS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH DUAL TANK FORD TRUCKS?*AK

REAR FUEL TANK LEAKS & DRIPS ON TAIL PIPE.I THINK THIS IS BECAUSE DIRT & SALT LAY ON THE FRONT OF TANK ON TOP OF PLATE THAT PROTECTS THE BOTTOM SIDE OF TANK. THE TANK RUSTS OUT ALONG THIS FRONT EDGE. *AK

FUEL LEAKS FROM THE FUEL TANK. WHEN VEHICLE IS PARKED OR IN MOTION FUEL RUNS OUT OF THE TRUCK FROM THE OPENING OF GAS TANK. WHEN GAS CAP IS TAKEN OFF FUEL STARTS TO SQUIRT OUT DUE TO PRESSURE. DEALER ADVISED CONSUMER THAT DEFECT WAS DUE TO CHECK VALVE BEING FAULTY AND BUILT PRESSURE INSIDE TANK. DEALER HAD ORDERED CHECK VALVE FROM MANUFACTURER FOR THE FRONT AND BACK PUMP. BOTH PUMPS WERE STILL DEFECTIVE. DEALER WENT TO A THIRD COMPANY FOR OPERATIVE PART. *AK

A MALFUNCTION WITHIN THE CHECK VALVE AND FUEL PUMP ASSEMBLY CAUSES A PORTION OF UNUSED FUEL TO TRANSFER FROM ONE TANK TO THE SECOND TANK, CAUSING FUEL LEAKAGE. VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN RECALL 93V125000/ FUEL TANK: AUXILLARY SELECTOR AND SWITCH. PLEASE GIVE ANY FURTHER DETAILS. *AK

REAR TANK WAS PUMPING FUEL INTO THE OTHER TANK, CAUSING IT TO OVERFLOW AND LEAK GAS. DEALER HAS REPLACED FUEL PUMP AND CHECK VALVES. *AK

GOING 35MPH A FRONTAL COLLISION OCCURRED WHERE ON IMPACT A FIRE CAME FROM BOTH SIDES OF THE HOOD, CAUSING TOTAL DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE. AFTERWARDS, SAW FUEL COMING OUT OF ONE OF ITS FUEL LINES. *AK

THE REAR TANK PUSHES FUEL INTO THE FULL FRONT TANK AND THEN THE FUEL GOES OUT ONTO THE GROUND. PLEASE DESCRIBE. *AK
