1992 Ford F-150 fuel system complaints
Page 5 of 9: complaints 101 to 130 of 245, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Ea99032- fuel is pumping from the back tank into the front tank. Consumer has on 4 occasions tested it and left the front tank empty, and within a short time the front tank will be full again. Fuel tank of vehicle does not operate properly no matter what position the fuel switch is in. *ak the recall to replace fuel pressure regulator and to install check valve was issued but the owner is not satisfied with the service. *yh
Believed to have been previously replaced under recall of '93. When contacting our local ford dealership we were told our VIN# did not come up therefore meaning that the part was replaced under the recall once already. The check valve within the fuel pump assy causes a portion of the unused fuel from one tank to be returned to the second tank which is causing the capacity of the second tank to cause fuel spillage.
The oil pan on my 1992 ford f-150 rusted all the way through and has begun to leak oil. I have investigated the repair cost to be between $300-$400. I have also found out that this is a reoccuring problem, with this vehicle make, model, year & engine size (4.9). I am very concerned of the cost and reoccurrance of this problem! I have also experienced the failure of one of the intanks of our (dual gas tank) fuel pumps. This cost me $385 to have replaced. I believe I shouldn't have had to pay for replacement of a faulty product! If there is any means of having the manufacturer cover the repairs of this vehicle I would be greatful for the information. Thank you for your time and consideration. James weigel.
Consumer was experiencing the same problem as stated in recall 93v125000.*ak a malfunctioning valve within the fuel pump assembly caused fuel spillage.
When both fuel tanks are full, pressure builds up and forces fuel to spew out of one of the gas caps. I have had a coupld of motorists flag me down to tell this and then when I stop it continues to spurt out for a few minutes. When both tanks are less than full, the fuel will return to the emptier tank every time until both tanks balance the amount of fuel. This also causes the pressure build up and fuel to spurt out of the gas cap. This problem had been handled on a recall notice by the prior owner of my truck so I am told by ford that their obligation is done. My opinion is that my vehicle is still a safety threat from fords parts (even a second set of parts after the recall). Ford insists they will not pay for this. I am having my mechanic fix this for me at a price of nearly $800 so I feel safe to drive my truck that ford wont take responsibility for.
Fuel pump check vaulve does not prevent fuel from going from one tank to the other causing tanks to over fill. Which is a big fire and enviromental problem. They did put in a new check value but it went out too they need to replace the bad valves
Ford "fixed" the check valve issue some years ago when the recall first came out, at that time the truck had no symptoms. Now when I choose the front tank the fuel flows back into the rear tank. Ford refuses to look at the problem again stating that they fixed it in the 90's.

Fuelpump pumps out gas from the rear tank to front tank, and when front tank gets full it pumps fuel right out into the road, consumer feels this could cause a fire.
When switching tanks, rear tank fills the front and it overflows if not switched back and forth, and fuel comes out of the gas cap. This is an unsafe condition to drive with.

Ihad to pay $538.55 to have one of my fuel tanks replaced due to a leak on 5-24-99. When I called ford on 12-27-1999 , they could not help me, and said my VIN number was not the numbers recalled.

I'm still skepitcal in driving my truck in fear the unrepaired tank could leak. Thank you very much for your help with this matter.
