Dual tanks question, truck dies when switching
I have a 1992 F150 with dual tanks, the problem I have is when I switch to the front tank the engine dies, switching back to the rear tank it fires back up. I have seen a few different reponses to this topic on here. Does anyone have first hand experience as to what the problem really is? Any help will be greatful.

I had a 94 that did this. It was a bad fuel pump, sounds like you have the same problem. Good luck replacing it yourself, I believe the fuel pumps in these trucks are IN the tank, someone correct me if I'm wrong. One of the reasons I envy my brothers PSD, fuel pump in the engine bay ;-)

You have a bad switch, wiring or pump in your front tank.
Here is a diagram:
