Can someone tell me where I would find the fuel selector valve on my 96 f 150 4.9 liter 5 sp. 4x4

 

There's not a valve in the fuel lines. The switching is handled inside the fuel tanks by shuttle valves built into the fuel delivery modules. Are you having a problem with cross-flow between tanks?

 

yes i am. the front tank is overflowing

 

I just replaced the rear tank after being without it for a year. Now with this happening ,it does'nt surprise me.

Other than this the truck has been great since 49000

miles .

 

It sounds like the front tank fuel delivery module is the culprit. The valve isn't shutting so a portion of the return fuel (and possibly some of the pressurized fuel to the engine) is going into the front tank. There was a recall this issue, but you may be outside the window of opportunity to get that fixed for free. A new front FDM should take care of it.

 

Thank you very much.

I will attempt this myself this weekend.

Do you reccommend oem Parts or aftermarket?

I will also replace the tank and straps. Due to rust and 9 years of New England.

 

A good quality aftermarket should be ok, something like NAPA or Carquest. Other than that, OEM should have all the updated components in it to hopefully eliminate future problems.

 

THAT WAS it Im all fixed Thanks alot
