2004-2008 F150 Fuel Tank Removal

2004 F150 with a 5.4 liter V8 that was overflowing gas onto the ground when you fill it up. The culprit was a line on top of the tank that was broken. I had to lower the fuel tank to gain access to it. I was going to replace the entire filler neck but it did not have the rubber hose attached. So, I went to the parts store and purchased some 3/8" fuel line to fix it.

I’ve been waiting for this video for over a year. Same problem 😂thank you

[@operationoverhaul]

I actually have seen a few of these with the same issue. It must be a common issue on this model.

[@JHorne1982]

Think it would be easier for someone to just remove the bed if they don't have a lift at home?

[@operationoverhaul]

That depends really. I have taken them out both ways and if you do not have a lift or any one to help you, you can lift just the one side of the bed and put something in there to hold up for you while you do the work. I say it depends because, the bed bolts can be rusted into place really good some times.

Would the tank come down low enough to change the fuel pump with how you did everything?

[@operationoverhaul]

Maybe, but I'll be honest I am not 100% sure. I would normally just get someone to help me lower it down if I was doing a pump or drain it myself.

[@glennboggs3563]

Is the line without the filter the fuel return line?

[@operationoverhaul]

Yeah that should be the return.

Thanks for the video, this helped me do my pump
