fuel

Asked by GuruDVL79 Aug 18, 2017 at 04:44 PM about the 1996 Ford F-150 Eddie Bauer LB

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Truck runs awesome when running running
from rear tank. But when running from front
fuel tank runs good in park I can rev it up
sounds good. But when driving and I step
on the gas it cuts out and dies sounds like
an air leak .but wouldn't that happen when
running from either tank .

sounds to me that Front tank fuel pump may not have enough fuel pressure to keep it running when driving. You have enough pressure for it to Idle and be " revved " up but not to drive
