Fuel Tank Question
 

Finally got my fuel pump in on Saturday afternoon. The genius at the Ford dealer ordered me the wrong fuel line clip. Luckily, a local autoparts store had one in stock. Anyway, I noticed that in the tank, where the pump sits, there is a "inner tank" or whatever its called. This "inner tank" is spot welded to the tank. Well it seems that the weld has broken and this inner tank is loose. I actually hear it moving when I hit a bump. Have any of you encountered this before?? I put everything back together 'cause I needed my car for today. Do you think I could just take my tank somewhere to have this repaired. How much would a new or used tank be??

A repro fuel tank runs about $140. from Mustangs Unlimited or other big parts houses.

Replace it. DO NOT repair it. And soon.

Take care,
Chris

HEY !!! Are you ASE Certified ??? If you are, ask me about iATN.

Get a fuel cell in the trunk! No i'm kidding, but it would be a nice addition, yes get a new one right away, don't know if all of that moving around in there could cause a spark but man if it did...
