F250 two tanks does that mean there is two fuel pumps?

Two tanks simply means there are two separate gas tanks for the truck. My f-250 has a front tank, which holds 20 gallons, and a rear tank that holds 15 gallons. There is a switch near the steering wheel that I can flip to switch tanks while driving. Hope this answers your question.

Why would you not be able to switch from the rear to front gas tank on a Ford F-150?

These models have a fuel selector switch that is vacuum operated, near one of the tanks. First, check to make sure the vacuum lines are intact and connected. If so, a new selector switch must be purchased and is available from most part stores. It depends on the year of truck you have on 1985 and newer there is a electric switch and you have to pull instrument cover to get to it. If you are having trouble changing tanks it might also be the fuel pump is bad in one of the tanks.. So listen to each tank and see if you hear them run when you switch tanks

Where is the fuel pump in the 1983 Ford E-350 Motorhome with a 460 and dual tanks?

They are in the tank. The black box on the driver side frame just before the front tank is the switch for the 2 tanks. the pumps run about $50 ea. But for an easy fix you can pick up a universal in line pump for the price of just one, and place it in the line before the switch and still pull from both tanks use the switch under the dash. I have the 83 Holiday Rambler on a ford e350 with 2 tanks and that's what I did. Works with no problems. Hope this helped, and happy camping.


What happened to Denver?

Sadly, he died in a plane crash. But I will forever love his music. No, the question was what "really" happened to John Denver. If his plane crashed and he didn't switch the tanks, why wouldn't John Denver know to switch the tanks" John Denver is known to be very smart. Why couldn't or didn't he switch his tanks, or what is the real story? I heard that the tanks weren't switched.

Fuel switch location on 1993 4 wheel drive ford f-150?

Maybe one of the kick panels if you are talking about the safety switch it is on passenger side kick panel just feel around for the switch or remove kick panel. if you mean switch to switch tanks it is on your dash it changes the fuel pumps in tanks if you have duel tanks if you have a single tank there is a lil relay in the same place on dash. behind dash panel by head light switch.
