How To Remove And Replace OBS Ford F150 F250 F350 Rear Fuel Tank - The Removal Pt1
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 жов 2024
- A highly detailed video showing the removal and replacement of a OBS Ford rear gas tank. This was performed on a 1997 Ford F350. The same process will work on Ford Bronco F150 F250 F350 with diesel or gas. Gas trucks will simply have an "in tank" fuel pump that needs to either be replaced or swapped onto your new or used sending unit. We recommend replacing the sending unit and fuel pump on gas vehicles, as it's the perfect time for preventative maintenance. We pride ourselves on showing great detail....there are no "finger snaps", and the job is done without any video of the struggles or completion of the job. Please enjoy, Like, Share and Subscribe!

This honestly could not have been any better of timing. I have to drop my gas tank because it leaks when I fill it up all the way so I’m going to be replacing it with everything you have there.
Hope it helps
I have been looking for a way to do drop my tank without taking off the bed. I live in the rust belt and my bed is probably rusted solid to the frame at this point. I plan on capping off the fuel lines for the time being since my rear tank developed a pretty decent leak and I only drive my truck in town.
This will work and allow you to assess morer damage under the truck. tanks are pretty cheap. Jeffs Bronco Graveyard sells them

This was really detailed and awesome but why not just remove the bed with the lift? It would've been way easier.
We wanted to make it more an “everyman’s” most don’t have lists. Plus the filler tubes and bed bolts- on most fords in Midwest don’t come out easy.
@Broncos and Parts Garage that's definitely understandable! Awesome video regardless!
Been thinking about tackling this project on my rig as well. What do you do with the fuel that gets drained from the tank? In my case, I believe the insides of both the front and rear tanks are corroding, so I don't want to save it in that state.
Do people filter it and add it into the replacement tank(s)? Dispose of it? How?
Gas weighs about 6 pounds a gallon. So be careful. We siphon it out and use it in lawn mowers. Or take to recycling centers if it’s ever removed.
@@BroncosandPartsGarage that’s helpful - the one difference I suppose in my case is that my truck is diesel. I can just reuse it in my tractor
they make a tool for exhaust hangers
Didn’t know. But we got em off pretty easy. Saved $$
Question! Do you think a hole in the tank would cause a truck to stall out while driving? Or even possibly hesitate tl start or stay idling? Thank you in advance!
Yes. When my tank was leaking I could only drive for 10-15 seconds before it would stall. And only run when pedal was on the floor. Made for fun trip at Orv park
🙄🙄🙄...In ALL the vids I've watched, NOBODY said ANYTHANG 'bout taking the Exhaust hangar off...NOBODY!!!...Sooo, just like the dang 5.0 liter Fuel Pressure regulator, I would've been there all freeking DAY tryna figure out how to take this stupid tank out... AND....I have to work on the side of the road coz my stupid Apartment complex don't allow me to work on my truck in the parking lot....
Glad it helped!!
@@BroncosandPartsGarage You're welcome, sir...👍👍😊😊
does the vent tube lead to anything?

What is OBS? Isn’t your company’s initials but seem relevant if I’m going to understand what your doing. Thank you.
OBS- old body style ford
@@BroncosandPartsGarage Old Body Style! Thank you! I never would’ve guessed!
We desperately need someone to "OBS solutions" us a ready-made in tank pump for those of us who want to do the 38 gallon rear tank conversion.
Tanks are already 33 gal. Get larger tank, bend down float?!
@BroncosandPartsGarage The rear tank on the Bronco is 33 gallons, but not the F-Series. The trucks have a 19 gallon aft axle tank. (Otherwise the "38 gallon mod" would not be a thing to do to these trucks. See forums, and Several UA-cam videos) you can not retrofit the Bronco in-tank pump to work for the truck, because (most all) the trucks have a dual tank system, and the pumps have a different design. 😉 Trust me my man, I would have done this a decades ago on most if not all of the 10+ OBS F-Series trucks I've owned if it were simple. I just don't care for the ghetto pump modifications people have to do for gas powered F-Series when they do the "38 gallon mod." Hence my comment.
This is the same procedure for the 92-96 bronco full body style?
Your Bronco will have a steel skid plate supporting the tank and straps on the top like the F-Series. Removing the fuel lines, vent tube and sending unit will be the same- with the exception of the fuel pump- which is in your Bronco tank. We have a bronco exclusive "tank" video coming out in a few weeks. Thanks for watching!
Ever tried 50/50 Acetone/Transmission fluid for penetrating oil?
I have not. Sounds ok
My vent valve on my single cab short box has two outlets and two hoses and I can’t find a replacement anywhere
One should be fine?!
@@BroncosandPartsGarage after research I learned one Vents to atmosphere, so I bought one for the 302 and capped the one that goes to the bumper
What are your thoughts on metal vs. plastic replacement tanks?
Metal is good for another 25 years. Plastic is great too but pricier. Tough call. I’m making a video using a plastic front tank on this truck too.
Good stuff be looking for part 2 will you be at the swap meet May 6.
