hey anyone notice there isnt a forum for general F-150 tech questions??

anyways whats the fuel tank capacity on a short bed F-150 and is a dual tank option available?

thanks!

25.0 gallons on my 98 shortbed Styleside.. I believe 30.0 gallons is optional.

 

Maybe I'm looking at the wrong page but I can't find an option on fuel tanks. It says (99book) the RC 4X4 is 24.5 gal for 6 1/2' box
all other 6 1/2' box trucks are 25 gal
all 8'box trucks are 30gal. I know I wanted the extra tank but was told when I ordered that it wasn't avaible on my truck.

my window sticker implied that the 25 gallon tank was an upgrade, it was listed in the optinal equipment area. I didn't know either way, I just assumed it had a large tank...

I think they done away with the 2nd tank as a option when they went to the new style in 97 before 97 you could get the 2nd tank as a option.

 

The Lady has it on this one guys. 24.5 short 4x4, 25 short and 30 long. 97 light duty on it is no option.

 

Yes TINA IS RIGHT ONLY ONE TANK PER TRUCK WHICH EVER YOU HAVE. FORD DONE AWAY WITH DUAL TANKS ONE REASON THEY HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE SWITCH THAT WORKED BETWEEN THE TANKS. IT WAS HARD ON FUEL PUMPS, VERY BAD.
