97 Explorer Fuel Tank

[oldguy5]

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.
Forgot to disconnect it first.

Also, who sells them and about how much $$.

Did you ever find one? I'm in need of one also.

Explorer valve assm,

Seems like someone else forgot to disconnect the valve before dropping the tank.

The part number is Ford F67Z*9B593*CA VALVE ASSEMBLY. Ford's price was $42.84. Good Luck.

Hello,

It happened to me too.

Sadly i was traveling for work reasons, and got a problem with my Explorer. It didn´t turn on... I try everything until my mechanic arrived, and it happend to be the Fuel Pump that i put new a month ago...

I got to buy a high pressure fuel pump, so it would work fine with my truck, so i got one. Yukkazo, sadly they only got for 4runner, so i got to use it.

And in the process, the vent valve got broken.... i will search it so i cant replace it. It's there a step by step guide on this matter?

Thanks for the answers!
