Q: How can i make My Ford f150 Get better Gas Mileage?
I have a 1997 Ford F150 2 Wheel drive on 31 inch tires and It has 77,700 miles on it. I’m a highschool student and im driving around a lot in town and my gas mileage isn’t to good. What can i do to improve it?
A: Go to stock radial tires…with full amount of recommended air. Stop driving around town…city driving is idle time..uses lots of gas. Make sure the vehicle is properly tuned and has clean oil and air filter. Keep your foot off the gas..drive progressively…and back off the throttle long before you get to the next traffic light.
Also never start your engine until after you have your seat belt on and are ready to go immediately. It adds up..leaving the car idle..2 mintes…3 times a day time 30 days…equals 90 minutes per month… I would say it will save you 6 gallons of gas per month. Good Luck

Q: How to replace rear pinion bearings on 1997 ford f150 4×4?
i was replacing the pinion seal on my 1997 Ford F150 4×4, when i removed the pinion nut i noticed alot of up down side to side movement, is this normal? if not how do i replace the bearing if it is indeed bad?
A: Usually when a pinion seal goes the bearing is the culprit as to why it went in the first place, unfortunately there’s 2, an inner and outer and should be replaced at the same time, which will unfortunately require disassembly of the entire differential, however I have seen some Podunk’s just replace the outer cone, and tighten it up, however its a band aid on a bullet wound and usually doesn’t last long before it starts growling at you.

Q: Where is the fuel relay switch located on a 1991 Ford F150?
I have a 91 Ford F150. I am not getting any fuel to the engine. When I checked the fuel filter, I noticed that I am not getting any power to the fuel tanks. I am thinking that it might be the fuel relay switch, cause to have both fuel pumps go out at the same time is well impossible. Please help.
A: My 93 F-150 had the fuel pump relay in a box of relays in the engine bay over the driver’s tire. The relay was a cube shape black plug-in purchased for relatively inexpensive at Auto Zone.
Q: How do i replace a brake light on my 2006 ford f150?
I have a 2006 ford f150 and i need to remove the rear right taillight assembly without breaking it. how do i do this to replace the burnt out lightbulb?
A: For the lights on the brake lights on the back of the bed take out the four screws that hold it to the body. You will have to let the tailgate down to do this. After you remove all 4 screws the lens assembly should come out very easily. For the brake light on the back of the cab above the back glass, simply remove the 2 screws. The lens assembly may give a little resistance coming off. After you get the assembly off its just a simple matter of twisting the bulb sockets out, putting new bulbs in and putting everything back together.
Q: where can i find a diagram showing how to mount the alternator on a Ford F150 with a 4.9 6 cylinder?
I need to connect the alternator on my 1986 Ford F150 4×4, 4.9 straight 6, with a/c. I know about the swing bracket near the motor, where does the other side mount up?
A: Purchase a Chilton’s or Haynes manual. It’ll give you the proper directions and illustrations.
Q: How do i change the front fuel pump in a 94 Ford F150?
I have a 94 Ford F150 with a 5 litre engine 2 wheel drive that is not getting gas. It starts when i spray starting fluid in it. I’m not exactly sure what needs to be removed to get the tank off to change the pump. Does the fuel filter line need to be taken loose first? Can I just take the straps loose and drop the tank without taking anything else apart first? What type of problems should I be aware of before I start this project?
A: If you have a hoist or just a couple of buddies the easiest is to take the bed off and all the access you need is right there. To take off the filler there should be three screws behind the filler door around the gas cap. This is required. Other than that take off your skid plate (my 94 3/4 ton has one, but my 94 1/2 ton did not) and take loose your straps, and keep an eye one the wiring harness leading up to the pump and sending unit (right hand side). Other than that just lower your tank.
Q: What could be causing my check engine light to come on on my 1997 ford f150?
2 days ago I purchased a 1997 Ford F150, 4×4, 5.4 triton V8. Has a lift kit, after market air filter and a shift kit. What could be wrong with it.
A: anything can be going wrong in ur engine compartment best bet is to take it to a shop and have the do a diagnostics test on it (usually about $60-$70) and they will tell u exactly whats goin wrong.
Q: Where can i find online info on torque specifications for a 2001 Ford F150 on the piston rod bolts?
Its a 2001 Ford F150 4.6 L V8. I need the torque specifications for the piston rod bolts. I either need you to give me the specs, or the website to access the info FOR FREE. I dont wanna buy a book for just this piece of info. Also, i begin work on the truck tomorrow, i dont have time to order a book and wait for it to ship. Serious answers only please.
A: There is a specific sequence in which the ALL the rod bolts must be tightened, but the actual torque specs. are as follows:
Stage 1: Tighten to 43 Nm (32 lb-ft).
Stage 2: Tighten an additional 105 degrees.
I was unable to copy and paste the actual sequence for the procedure due to the fact that it was shown in an illustration. I hope you are using new rod bolts because they are torque to yield specs. Hope this helps.
Q: What type of back brakes does my husband need for his 1997 Ford F150?
Disc or drum breaks? It is a 1997 Ford F150 4×4, off-road package, extended cab. We just bought it the other day and are wanting to put new back brakes on it.
A: - You’ll have to look at it to be sure as it could have either on it. You should be able to look through the holes in the wheels to determine.
- If you see nothing but rough rusty metal then it’s likely drum brakes (you’re seeing the outer surface of the brake drum).
- If you see somewhat smooth shiny silver metal then it’s likely disc brakes (you’re seeing the brake rotor).
- If you can’t tell that way, look under the truck into the backside of the wheel.
- If it’s drum brakes there will only be a large round piece of metal directly behind the wheel (the brake drum), and you will see a large round backing plate with a metal brake line going into it where the brake wheel cylinder is installed. Here’s a general picture of a truck with drum brakes:

- If it’s disc brakes there will be a thin (about 1/2 inch) metal disc. The brake caliper will be covering part of the upper/backside of the disc (rotor), and it will have a rubber brake hose going into it. Here’s a general picture of a truck with disc brakes:

- Another possible way to find out is to call the dealer. Often times the parts department at a genuine dealership can find out specifically what kind of parts you need using the VIN (Vehicle Identification Number).
- However, if you’re asking this question I’m guessing you haven’t looked at it yet in which case I wonder what makes you think you need to replace them? If they are making noise, you really should have them checked before you just throw money & parts at it. Noise can be a simple as just dirt and dust buildup and a good blasting at the car wash can often fix that problem (semi-metallic brake pads are infamous for dust buildup and noise – ceramic brakes don’t have that problem as much). On the other hand, sometimes people mistake the noise of a bad wheel bearing (or other issues) for bad brakes. Most shops won’t charge much, if anything at all to check your brakes for you if you don’t know how to yourself. A $20 inspection fee is better than $150 worth of parts that weren’t needed! Ask some people you know what shop they would recommend. Word-of-mouth is the usually the most reliable way to find a trustworthy mechanic.
Q: how many quarts transmission gear oil do you need for a 1995 ford f150 5 speed transmission?
We have just replaced one of the shift forks in my 1995 ford f150 5 speed transmission. It is ready for the gear oil but not sure how many quarts I will need.
A: I’m not sure of the total amount, but you fill it until it overflows from the fill plug. Make SURE you use the correct fluid. Not all 5 speeds take gear oil. Many take ATF, so be aware.
Q: What kind of ignition does a 1995 Ford F150 have?
I own a 1995 2WD Ford F150. The other night I went to the store, and when I came back out and tried to start the thing, it wouldn’t even turn over. There was plenty of battery power and all the auxiliaries came on, but when I turned it to start where the engine start to crank all I heard was a tap. One single tap like something hitting a plate. Any idea what is wrong and what I need to get to fix it? Also, is this an easy fix or a pretty complicated one?
A: The ign is a TFI hall effect system, but the problem you are having is either a bad starter or bad starter relay on the passenger fender. Set the parking brake and place in neutral or park and using a screw driver short the 2 big terminals on the relay on the fender, if you have a spark and no crank then the starter is bad, if it cranks the relay is bad
