My truck has a leak in the gas tank, and I called a few scrap yards around town. One has the tank, but they claim there are 2 different tanks, one with a pressure sensor, and one without. I was wondering if there was any way to tell the difference without dropping the tank. Does it have anything to do with the return fuel lines vs. the newer returnless sytem? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 






I am pretty sure there is no pressure sender on any of the 2nd gen Explorers. There are 3 fuel systems that I am aware of- the returns system, the early returnless system (up to 2/00) and the newer returnless (2/00+)
 






Thanks. Now Maybe I can get a tank in by next weekend, and actually get more than 10 gallons of gas.
