I worked for Ford for a number of years and another big problem I found is the connections going into the fuel pump relay get corroded and break. It's located under the hood on the drivers side. The pigtail is green. I've replaced many of them. So if you have a crank no start condition check the fuel pump relay and direct wiring before messing with the fuel pump.

My 92' f150 5.0 is at 440k, was my grandmothers truck who raised me. The fuel tank selector switch pigtail can become corroded as well, small files and bending the wire terminals end for a more snug fit fixed my 2 dead fuel pumps after buying replacements and a new selector switch.

I have a '96 F150 I bought in '97. 275k miles. All the issues he spoke about are true. The oil pan gasket is a nightmare. He didn't tell you about the process to replace the gasket. Also, who ever owns that truck doesn't deserve it. So much rust! They are not hard or expensive to maintain.

From my '95 4.9l manual I learned the oil pan will not clear the pump due to frame member. Wait until you find out that you cannot raise the motor without removing the AC plenum. I went to a Ford dealership and paid them $500 to change oil pan and valve cover gaskets, but that was over 10 years ago. Today I'd just drop the pan as far as it will go and cut the new gasket once. Permatex.

@kenthuntsingersr7501 6 ай бұрын

dude , there is no valve in the pump assemble to stop the return fuel from going into the wrong tank. The fuel selector valve on the frame rail serves this function. The valve directs the correct return for the fuel tank being used. These valves do fail and cause the non selected tank to overfill.

I have a 93 F-350 with a 460/E40D 168k miles. Just re-sealed the engine she runs like a champ. The year I bought it I did the following: oil change w filter, transmission fluid and filter, t-case fluid, front axle fluid and gasket, rear axle fluid and gasket, right wheel bearing and U-joint, carrier bearing, and now the re-seal. I need to give it a new paint job and some upgrades.

1993 XL F-150 still drive it every other day. Been from NJ to South Dakota and back 4 times towing a Harley. NJ to Daytona 3 times in the last 4 years. Incredibly dependable. 4.9 - 5 speed manual. 💪

@georgejones4071 Жыл бұрын

On The 4.9 the valve cover gasket will leak on the back side and make you think it was the oil pan or rear seal and is very common on the older ones. And is very hard to tell where it comes from. That's if you can tell at all and if you are unsure go with the valve cover frist. I learned that the hard way. ☺

EGRs - bypassed or removed them and plugged whatever holes were left since NY didn't do a good state inspection then

The EGR valve I agree is a problem area. My check engine light was on and I replaced the EGR valve. No more check engine light but now it has the occasional stalling problem. I think that if you put in a cheap aftermarket EGR valve it may not function perfectly.

Those tiny plastic vacuum lines are brittle and crack easily due to the age of the vehicle. I searched everywhere but no one makes replacements for them..... I have gotten to the point of hating to work on my '95 E150, every connection I take apart seems to break no matter how easy I am with it. Thankfully no rust anywhere, but basic stuff just shows that these parts can't handle the test of time. So tempted to yank the 302 and throw in a carbureted 4.9l inline 6 for simplicity.

I currently own 3 of these body styles. 92 F-150, 95 F-150, and a 95 F-350. I'm currently having an issue with the F-350. It was running fine whenever I pulled into a parking space, but whenever i started back up to pull out, the 5.8 developed a hard misfire. I did a complete tune-up replacing the plugs, wires, distributor cap, and rotor. Nothing changed. I'm stumped. The motor only has 92K on it.

I bought a 96 f150 4wd with the 5.8 in it in 96 and other than normal wear and tear like brakes and tune ups the only thing that gave me any issues was the fuel pump quit and I sold it with 279,000 miles on it and recently I just bought a 94 flare side 4wd 5.0 for $800.00 and it's pretty much got all these issues and more 🤣 good thing I'm a collision tech and mechanic.

The BIGGEST problem Fords have is the damn gas gauges don't work. I've had 8 Ford trucks and driven others and not a damn one of them worked. I even replaced the one in my 89 F-150 and it didn't last a year. It just slowly got worse till it quit altogether. I think the only Ford I've had with a working gas gauge is my Lincoln Town Car. Insane !

It did Happen to Me On the Switch

@TheRealMrBeercan 11 күн бұрын

Wow, I've had every one of those problems on my 1993 F150 except the ignition coil. When my passenger side spring shackle broke, it drove the spring end right through the floor of my pickup bed and left a hole. I've replace BOTH spring shackle brackets. My fuel always migrates from the back tank to the front. So, I use the front tank first then switch to the rear. When the fuel from the rear is in the front tank, then I switch back to the front. He forgot to mention the faulty alternator connector that can cause a fire. I had that happen and found that you MUST replace the connector when you replace the alternator or risk a fire. Despite all those problems, my F150 has over 340,000 miles on it and still passes emission testing somehow. The engine has NOT been rebuilt. Last year, the air conditioning compressor had to be replaced after a mere 330,000 miles and 30-years of service. What does "Made in America" mean any more?

I have a 1995 F-250 with the 5.8 and I just rolled 361k miles on it (original engine). I've had it since new, 3000 mile oil changes and full service....never an issue. It's so far outlasted the radiator and transmission....not a fan of the factory trans in this F-250 and had a heavy duty rebuild. The transmissions behind these motors from the factory are made more for cars...plan on rebuilding the right way if you have one with a heavy duty rebuild. It's the ticket!

drop the tank or pull the bed..that faulty check valve was a recall item. The trucks are outside the age limit. Ford wont fix, now. The solution was an inline check valve. Also, something you cant get. 6 bolts to pull the bed or drop the the tank. Which, you'll have to drain since its likely full of fuel. Did it on my 96 f250 7.5L ..sucked but, fixed it.

@Tripledoffroadbbq 5 ай бұрын

Problem I have with this is that you never specified what engine. On my 92 5.0 most of the things you pointed out are not even close to where they actually live. Now I’m gonna hazard a guess that’s a 300 6 or a 4.9 liter i6 based on where the egr valve and the control solenoid is located. I just think it’s poor representation on your part not explaining that.
