Gas tank size

Hi guys,

Need some help IDing a gas tank.

Truck is a '94 F-150 XLT. Extended cab short box. 351 w/E4OD. 2WD. The owners manual says that the front tank should be 16Gal and the rear 19Gal. Can someone please double check that for me. Are there any indications of quantity on the tanks themselves?
I need to order a front tank due to leaks around the straps. Any suggestions on a coating (if any) to put on the new tank before installation. Thanks guys.

Robert Nooy.

do a search covered many times with many opinions and options like plastic versus metal etc.

Front is 16 and rear is 18.2. I will be doing this again myself soon, I am going to coat the new one with POR-15, I am getting sick of replacing rusted ones.

Yeah, this just got discussed.

gatesj is right, the rear is 18.2, older trucks (87-89) had 19 in the rear.
