fuel tank

Anyone have a source / solution for a larger gas tank for a 2023 Explorer XLT? When pulling our RV, we get about 11mpg and have to stop every less than 3 hours for gas. Any other way to improve mpg? We have the tow package, and a brake controller. Pulling a 4k lb RV.

Have had quite a few looks over the past couple weeks for answers to this issue. I apologize if it’s been answered. For starters picked up a 2013 3.5 eco explorer from auction. 315000km. Was told the turbos had been replaced 15000km ago and the converters have been cut out. Gave the vehicle a...

Hello everyone, I sadly got to comment that on monday 20/03 i went on to a trip on my explorer elite 2000. It were about 348km to my destination, and in the way, i got trouble with the fuel pump ¡AGAIN! Here in my country (Venezuela) the fuel is too much contaminated, and due to that the fuel...

Hi guys, I seem to be dealing with some type of fuel tank venting issue on my '04 4.0L 4WD. It hasn't thrown a code yet, but I just replaced the fuel pressure regulator that was throwing a code & all of the sudden it's leaking fuel from the tank inlet for no apparent reason. (Too much...

2004 Explorer Sport Trac - Slow Fuel Fill [SOLVED] I finally found the problem with the slow fill problem after many hours of tracking and backtracking. The issue was in the fuel filler neck. I had earlier scoped the neck and screen with a fiber optic scope, and it looked clean. Because of that...

What is that little copper looking flap supposed to do? It is looks like it is ported to the small vent line that runs from the filler tube mouth down to the tank area next to the main fill hose, Does it have some kind of switch or something.. Mine is in the open position. I remember it used to...

Hi guys, another posting question. I have a hard starting and running question. When I have to start my outfit, 1993 Explorer on the asphalt on 93 degree plus heat days...probably 140 degrees, I get a good start when I loosen the gas cap....woosh. I was told on a call to Ford that this is an...

Hey, I am new to the forum - I recently purchased a 2008 Explorer Limited with a fuel sending unit issue. I have learned a great deal from the forum, so I wanted to share a couple things I figured out while replacing the fuel pump this weekend. 1. You probably could do it without disconnecting...

I am now hanged up on dropping my 21 gallon tank by the vapor tube not disconnecting from the Evap Vapor Check Valve. the tank is partially down a few inches. I take it that these connectors are removed by pressing in both tabs on the female connector, right? I feel like the far side seems to...

Well I had a fuel smell when parked facing uphill, the clamps wouldn't tighten any more, so I pulled the rubber hose off and found rust holes at both the filler neck and the fuel tank. So I've got that going for me...

What other year gas tanks will directly fit my 2000 4.0 4dr

So I woke up this morning and my 2005 Sport Track (4.0L) would not start, turned over like crazy just no combustion. After I tested the fuel pump fuse and relay, my father (the previous owner) mentioned it did the same thing to him once and to fix it he had to start the engine with the fuel cap...

I was pumping gas today, and for the second time in a matter of months, I noticed that when I clicked the pump to get the last drops, all of a sudden i hear liquid hitting the ground. I looked at the filling hole and nothing. I then looked under my car, only to see where gas had come out and...

As a former Ford Tech and dealership parts guy I was fairly confident that I could take a nice 1997 Explorer 4.0 OHC with a smoked tranny and dead air and use a 2000 model slightly wrecked and rusty 2000 model and have cheapo 4x4 . Great theory . Visually very similar , but drive train is not...

I was changing my fuel pump and when I dropped the tank down I disconnected the 2 fuel lines to the pump and the other line going to this white plastic spout. Now the the electric that goes to the fuel pump tees off and goes to this other black plastic piece(im guessing a sensor). so i tried to...

Hi. I was wondering if someone could help me with my explorer. I am trying not to take it in unless I know something can be fixed as my car has recently encountered some maintenance issues (ie. stolen radio = broken/disconnected wipers, air, etc; replaced brake pads and batteries) I noticed...

Does anyone know: What the variously called Breather Vent Hose Assembly, Fuel Tank Vent Valve or Valve - Fuel Vapor Vent are called (Ford part number would help) when searching "motorcraft" or parts stores (NAPA, Autozone, Advance Auto). I broke one when dropping the tank on the Explorer...

Hi, I'm about to drop my tank to replace the fuel pump this week. I'm not sure what size disconnect tool to get for the line at the tank though. Does anyone know? I couldn't find it in the shop manual or any of the other threads. I have the one I used for the fuel filter - I think 5/16. I...
