MOVEOVER, I just checked the recalls from here and came across this for 97 F-150's:
NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID Number: 00V231000
Component: FUEL:FUEL LINES FITTINGS:NON-METALLIC
Manufacturer: FORD MOTOR COMPANY
Mfg. Campaign #: 00S22
Year: 1997
Make: FORD TRUCK
Model: F150
Potential Number of Units Affected: 670509
Manufactured From: NOV 1995 To: AUG 1997
Year of Recall: '00
Type of Report: Vehicle
Summary:
Vehicle Description: Light duty pickup trucks. The front fuel line assembly could have a hole rubbed through in one of two locations. The first location is below the fuel rail connection where the flexible hose is crimped to the steel tube. The bracket that attaches the front fuel line to the transmission could have been bent during assembly. The second location is at the rear steel tube section forward of the rear bracket. During installation the rear steel tubes of the front fuel line assembly could have been bent downward. In vehicles equipped with a manual 4xz4 transfer case shifter, the shifter linkage may contact the steel tubes as it is being shifted between 4H, 4L, 2L and Neutral.
This condition could result in fuel leakage. Fuel leakage in the presence of an ignition source could result in a fire.
