01/2016: vehicle was being driven home from work when there was a loss of engine power. Vehicle was able to roll to a stop in the parking lot of a church. Later it was determined this resulted from failure of #7 cylinder injector unit, believed to have failed due to delamination inside of fuel tank. About 02/23/2014, 207980 miles: fuel tank had been removed and internal screens cleared due to the engine stalling while driving prior to injector failure. Internal pick-up tube screens were blocked with delamination material from the inside of the tank. Two new fuel pumps had been purchased and installed prior to cleaning the internal pick-up screens.

Rear fuel tank strap that holds the fuel tank in position failed. In 2003 ford had a recall on this truck to install safety straps around the fuel tank in case there was a failure of the main straps. When the rear strap failed the safety strap failed and the only thing holding the tank in the truck was the fuel line. The tank was about 3/4 full if it had separated all together it would have been a disaster and probably a fire.
