Re: rear fuel tank pump?

I have never heard that, but it certainly could explain the pump problems that seem to be common in this model. I guess most folks would run on one tank until empty then switch. I once had a Ford F250 with 460 and dual tanks. It had a manual valve under the seat. I always ran the tank empty then swi...

Rear fuel tank pump....?

I started this discussion in new owner forum but figured it should be here. When I drove about 150 miles (mostly interstate)after purchase, It would run fine on front tank. Then when switched to rear it sputtered and engine shut off. I filled the tank to be sure it was not gauge. This happened three...

Thanks, I will start there. While trying to clean debris from the main vent and the shower vent I damaged the plastic housing on both. The front vent is Maxxair and the shower is Phillips.

New Owner...

Hi, I just acquired a 1991 with 460 in pretty good shape (I think). A little less than 70K miles. All the camper stuff seems to work ok. Everything had a good bit of storage dust so I am still cleaning up. Runs great on front tank, not so on rear tank. I do not know enough about it to ask questions ...
