Gas tank problem

[92Dora]

i bought a new 93 explorer 2wd...and it didnt have the gas tank in...it was in the trunk...so i bought a new fuel pump and all that...and now im sitting in my driveway and i cant find where to put the second strap the smaller one that goes up towards the front....ive been under it for about an hour hunting for it with my two friends...anyone know where it is maybe have some pictures???

I have a '93 2WD, let me see if my batteries are up in the camera.

if you look @ the tank, there are actually indentations where those straps goe... they bolt up top, and htey are quite hard to see

Not much to see due the shield I didn't know was there, but here they are in case you can use them.

thanks...im missing a few bolts that pick up tomorrow and finish but its up and it holds gas...now my new problem is the fuel pump isnt getting any power...the reason i got the car was because it stopped runnign a year ago and i talked to the guy and i got it for 100...and he said it might not be the fuel pump but its a good place to start...so any suggestions on what it could be???

reset the fuel cutoff switch

is it on the passenger side behind the panel on the floor like in a ranger?

If I'm not misstaken, it's in the passenger's side floorboard, just under the dash.

 

[92Dora]

alright ill check it tomorrrow....if its not that what esle could it be?

 

[Gadget X]

check the fuel pump relay and all the wiring and fuses too. That might save you some problems later on.

 

[Gadget X]

Oh yeah, you should also replace the fuel filter and check the fuel pressure regulator.

This wiring diagram might help you- http://www.autozone.com/images/cds/gif/large/0900823d800ba9dc.gif

I also have a copy of the 91-94 ford truck cd that I could put back on either bittorent or limewire if you need it.

Ummm... I could really use that if you can send it my way somehow. I need it for my '97 too but I suppose the trucks are too different. I don't have a Limewire thingy but I think I can do bittorent (new Mac, not familiar yet).

I'm actually in the process of downloading the CDs and DVDs for all of the year models, so if I get them done, I'll figure it out and put them online for all to download. (I've got a really fast connection, so it should be fairly quick)
