• Q: What safety precautions should be taken when servicing the fuel filler hose and midship fuel tank filler pipe on 2007 Ford F-350 Super Duty?

  A: Safety measures during fuel filler hose and midship fuel tank filler pipe maintenance require total avoidance of both smoking and open flames near all components because highly flammable mixtures exist. Pay attention to relieving fuel system pressure before component disconnect to stop unsafely spraying fuel that creates danger of fire. Start by setting the vehicle on neutral position on a hoist and then disconnect the battery ground cable. You should drain the fuel tank until it reaches below half full before removing the vent tube from the fuel tank filler pipe quick disconnect. The fuel tank filler pipe installation requires removal of the fuel tank filler cap while tightening the three upper retaining screws to 3 Nm (27 lb-in). To install replace the fuel filler pipe assembly according to the reverse order of its removal.
