1992 F150 XLT LARIAT 302. DUEL TANKS. I USE THE REAR TANK AND NOT THE FRONT ONE. THIS WEEKEND MY TRUCK IS RUNNING GAS WILL POUR OUT OF THE FRONT TANK AT THE GAS CAP. I TOOK BOTH CAPS OFF SO THERE WAS NO PRESSURE BUILD UP AND IT MADE NO DIFFERENCE THE GAS STILL POURED OUT THE FRONT TANK REALLY BAD. WHEN YOU'RE ON THE HIGHWAY IT ACTS LIKE IT WANTS TO SHUT OFF. THEN WHEN YOU PARK IT GAS GUSHES OUT THE TANK AND THE VAPOR CANISTER UP UNDER THE HOOD I HAVE HAD THE TRUCK FOR TWO MONTHS, IT HAD A LITTLE OVER 92,000 ORIGINAL MILES WHEN I PURCHASE IT AND NOW A LITTLE OVER 94,000.. THERE WAS A RECALL ON THIS TRUCK IN JULY 9, 2001 "ORIGINAL RECALL FROM THE NHTSA" "NHTSA ACTION NUMBER EA99032 POTENTIAL NUMBER OF UNITS AFFECTED 1,556,221

I HAVE NOTICED A STRONG SMELL OF GAS WHEN EXITING VEHICLE AFTER USE. A FEW DAYS LATER SAW GAS COMING FROM FRONT TANK FILLER. CHECKED CAP WAS ON PROPERLY. THEN I NOTICED THAN FUEL CONTINUED TO SPILL REGARDLESS OF TRUCK RUNNING OR NOT. DOES NOT DO IT EVERY TIME. GAS DISAPPEARS FROM REAR TANK. I SUSPECT GAS IS BEING PUMPED FROM REAR TANK TO FRONT TANK UNTIL IT OVER FLOWS. ONE FAMILY TRUCK, BOUGHT NEW BY MY SON IN LAW I HAVE HAD IT AROUND 3 YEARS. 110,000 ACTUAL MILEAGE. OLD BUT LOW MILEAGE. SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. COULDN,T FIND ANY RECALLS PAST 1999.
