OK, I'm trying to deal with a sales person at my local parts store . What I have is a minor exhaust leak thats under the intake manifold on my 1996 4.9 . I would like to replace the exhaust rail (for lack of a better ID ) it's the one that is located in the same area as the fuel injectors . It runs the length of the engine and has a valve on the top approx in the number 2 cylinder area . I've been told that these rust out and the problem is rather common but I can't seem to get the right person to help me out . If someone knows what this part is called maybe that will help .

 

I think that would be air injection tubes from your description, I'm not sure what the parts house calls them (they all seem to have their own names for things), but I would think it would be in the emissions section of the catalog.

 

Thank you !! I feel like such an old fart trying to explain what the heck I'm looking for to a young sales guy . If this was my older stuff that I normally work on I would know exactly what to call it (or at least be in the same ballpark) LOL

 

Is this what you're asking for?

F5TZ-9B445-B (replaced E7TZ-9B445-C) .. 300 I-6 (4.9L) Air Supply Tube / 1987/96 F150/350, Bronco & Econoline.

Notice that the check valve (9A487) and nuts and ferrules (9B471) do not come with the tube, sold individually. Lotsa luck removing the check valve, the puppy usually twists/cracks apart when a wrench is applied.

How old are you (probably younger than I am)? The first use of these types of tubes occurred in 1966, installed on 240/300 I-6's in F100's, 240 I-6's in Galaxie/LTD/E100 with T/E on CA vehicles.

And btw, these tubes were a dealer item only originally, so I dunno if a parts store carries it.

 

Not the same parts . Mines a 96 so I believe that they would be different . It's the main tube runs lengthwise the engine right above the fuel injectors and it has separate smaller tubes that come of from it at 90 deg bends to go into the head itself . I can get a picture but I'm really not sure how to post it in the thread . And I'm 52 yrs old but I normally stick with the older cars /trucks they are more my style and a heck of alot easier to work on .

 

Couldn't figure out how to post the pic here . It's posted in my gallery section under the title F150.

 

Could we see some pictures? Here is how.

It seems awkward, but whenever you "insert a picture" to one of these threads, the forum is looking for the picture somewhere on the web (which is always available) rather than from somewhere on your hard drive (which isn't always available).

While you're making a post on FTE, select the pic you want to post from your Photobucket album. When the large version of the pic is open, right mouse click on it and select "View Image Info". The image info will be highlighted and will look something like this:

Copy that highlighted info (right click / copy).

When you have the spot in your post where you want the pic to be placed, select the "Insert Image" icon at the top of the post (looks like a mountain) and paste (right click / paste) the image info you copied in the highlighted box (just shows "http://" when it opens).

Your pic will be placed in the post.

Hope that helps.

Here's a tutorial Bob put together: https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/67...-pictures.html

 

F5TZ-9B445-B replaced E7TZ-9B445-C = The tube is the SAME ~ 1987/96 F150/350, Bronco & Econoline 300 I-6 (4.9L). There isn't another tube listed for these applications.

I posted the 1987/89 pic from the 1980/89 Ford Light Truck Parts (CD) Catalog because my 1990/2001 Ford Light Truck Parts Catalog is on microfiche.

F5TZ part number taken from 1990/2001 catalog. Lotsa luck finding a 1996 only tube...because there isn't one!

 

Hi Bill, sorry for hijacking this thread, but I didn't want to open a new one just for a fast question: I purchased this part supposedly as a mount for the E4OD in my Bronco (check the signature for more data), but it didn't fit, the number is E7TZ-6068-C, could you please identify it so I know what I'm dealing with?.

 

E7TZ-6068-C = 1987/93 F150 302 4WD & 1988/93 Bronco 302 4WD / 1987/89 F150 & 1988/89 Bronco 351W 4WD // 1992/96 E150 302 / 1992/97 E150/350 351W

A/T or M/T makes no difference, but inre to F150 & Bronco, 4WD uses a different mount than 2WD

Where did'ja buy the puppy from...in Chavezville, US or ? / Is it genuine Ford or an autoparts store 'fitz-all' replacement?

Look at the puppy, see if there's an ID number molded into the rubber (may include 6068 or 6D091). If so, post what it is.

 

Just wanted to pop in and thank you for the help . I spent the morning by passing the whole system . I was going to replace the Air tube but I couldn't get the fittings lose from the cylinder head . Considering this truck only sees about 5-6 k miles a year I figured what the heck why not .

 

The part is a genuine Ford spare, I bought it years ago in Venezuela (where I live). There are no marks in the rubber part. I'll upload a pic of the sticker to see what can you make of it. My truck is a 4wd btw.

 

Here is an image of the tag Bill, no other markings in the mount except the one that reads REAR:
