Best Answer

The answer was on a forum web page for 1995 - 2001 Ford Explorers. It also helped me with the same problem. There is a plastic pinch clamp that must be squeezed, then wiggle and pull the hose off. Use your fingers because a tool may break the plastic. When you put it back on you will hear a sharp click when it is back in place.

How do you repair fuel filler hose on 1997 Ford ranger?

you don't you replace the whole hose. i hear it is better to remove the bed, than to remove the gas tank. You can drop the tank, but that is too hard, better lift the bed and do it the easy way. As soon as you begin to lift the bed you have to remove the three screws holding the filler neck to the bed, open the filler door you will see the three screws. Lift the bed and replace the filler neck. also if any other hose is bad you can do those at the same time.
