The gas hose, the hose that goes from the gas tank to where gas is inserted, is leaking. I can get a hold of the part, but am unsure as to how it would be fixed without welding it. Anyone know how or have any suggestions? Thanks

 

cant believe its been two years and no one has replied!! hahaha
but anyways im having the same problem.
anyone had this problem before?
know how to take it off/replace it?
thanks

 

pull the filler neck out and replace any busted parts, replace filler neck. Done.

 

Are you sure the filler neck needs to be replaced? Might want to check the rubber grommet that the filler neck slides into. Mines torn and leaks if the tank is completely full. Need to replace that this weekend.

 

Yea thats exactly whats happening with mine.

 

Yeah it's probably just the rubber grommet then. My filler neck looked fine and nothing leaked until we dropped the tank to swap pumps and that's when r3d noticed the rubber grommet was torn. I just haven't been filling the tank up all the way in the mean time. Have you noticed your fuel levels being off at all or being kinda weird? Mine seems to be.

 

we may have to mess wtih the level sensor. It could be bumping something.

 

Where exactly is the level sensor? I'll probably tackle it this weekend and be done with it. Sucks having boost and this damn rain.

 

it's the float do-hickey attached to the pump housing with the grey travel soap dealie on the end of it.

 

yea my fuel levels have been messing up too
i just jacked my car up and was trying to get the fuel hose off
but i dont know how to get it off.
any help with that?

 

Are you trying to take the fuel line off of the fuel filter? If so, you need to get the little disconnect tool for a few bucks at an auto parts store. Open your gas tank, remove those three bolts, disconnect the fuel line from the fuel filter that goes to the tank, then undo the straps holding the tank in place, but make sure you have a jack underneath it. There should be a couple harnesses to detach and such and the tank will drop right down. As it's coming down, have it lean towards the drivers side and then you can move it to slide the filler neck out. Hope that helps some.

Did you happen to buy the rubber grommet? If so, what's the part # for that?

 

yea thanks for the help!!!
I didnt know i had to drop the gas tack but it wasnt hard at all
i just went to the ford dealer and ordered it
im not sure what the part number is
the numbers on the rubber grummet were F8AO-9072
and it had M599A below that.
hope that helps

 

No prob. I found the part number, but thanks. So is everything cool now? No more leaks?

 

NO MORE LEAKS!
i got the rubber grommet in today because dealer had to order it. it was $23 somthin after tax and shipping but the satisfaction of fixing it my self: PRICELESS

 

Good work man. I need to stop by Ford today and get one. Hopefully they have one in stock.
