2008 Ford F-350 Super Duty Fuel Filler Hose Parts Q&A

• Q: How to service and repair the fuel filler hose and midship fuel tank filler pipe on 2008 Ford F-350 Super Duty?

  A: First service and repair work on the fuel filler hose and midship fuel tank filler pipe should start by placing the vehicle in neutral gear on a hoist. Disconnect the battery ground cable. You should disconnect the fuel tank filler pipe from the fuel tank by loosening its clamp and breaking the connection between the fuel tank and the filler pipe for gasoline engines. The vent tube on the fuel tank filler pipe must also have its quick connect coupling removed. When servicing diesel powered engines you should open the hose clamps while you disconnect both the fuel tank filler pipe and the fuel tank filler pipe vent tube from the tank body. The fuel tank filler cap should be removed first followed by the three fuel tank filler pipe retaining screws while new plastic inserts need installation when dealing with early build vehicles. End the installation by removing the fuel filler tank filler pipe assembly before following installation steps in reverse order. It is crucial to handle the fuel filler cap with care because fuel system pressure exists; users should wait for vapor emissions and hissing sounds to stop before removing the cap completely to avoid dangerous fuel spray injuries.
