Lima Delta Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Hello, having a heck of a time locating a replacement fuel filler neck for the aft tank on my F250. Hoping someone here might have one in good condition they could set me up with. Depending on the cost, I wouldn't mind also getting a filler neck for the front tank too... Thanks!

Gary Lewis Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Just to make sure everyone is on the same page, which part numbers are you looking for? Here's the illustration for the mid-ship tank: And here's the illustration for the aft-axle tank: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rembrant Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 Oh man...I hate it when this happens, but I had a styleside filler neck kickin' around my garage for a year and I finally threw the thing away about three weeks ago. I would have gladly given it away. I assumed it was for the midship tank, but I guess it doesn't matter much now. If I come across another one I'll definitely grab it.

I may have one, but just need to make sure I know what he's looking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kramttocs Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 I may have one, but just need to make sure I know what he's looking for. Somewhere recently I'd read that the next gen filler neck is a good upgrade and if so it looks like LMC has them....and they like them. http://www.lmctruck.com/features/fd/FDA53.htm I pulled 3 of them when at the jy last week but left the necks in the bed of a truck as I just needed the black plastic housing. If nothing turns up, I can grab one next time I am there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to those diagrams, part numbers are 9034 in both cases, but clearly each filler neck is a different shape - does that make sense?

Hi Rembrant, Thanks, yeah, I started out just trying to get a little bodywork done around the fenders, then I start noticing things, and suddenly I got a nice a can 'o worms on my hands haha.

If you were able to grab me one from the scrap yard it would be much appreciated. I WISH I could find a few old hulks up here in the scrap yards. Vehicles from the bullnose era either rusted out or got parted out long ago I'm afraid. LD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Lewis Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 Hi Gary, The garagemahal is such a great resource - thanks! According to those diagrams, part numbers are 9034 in both cases, but clearly each filler neck is a different shape - does that make sense? LD The "9034" is the generic part number. And every filler neck, officially Pipe Assy (Fuel Tank Filler), for every Ford vehicle ever built anywhere in the world will have its filler neck listed as a 9034. But, it is the prefix and suffix that are needed to differentiate between, say, a 1950 Ford sedan built in the US and a 1990 Ford truck built in Europe. If you go to Fuel Systems/Fuel System Part Numbers/Fuel Filler Pipes you'll see that the Bullnose ones are something like E0TZ 9034-C. The "E" in the prefix means the 1980 decade, and the "0" means the first year of the decade. In other words, that part was engineered and/or first used in 1980. And the "C" means it isn't A nor B nor D nor...., with each change in letter of the suffix meaning the part is different. Perhaps it is a slight revision and will fit and/or work, or perhaps it is a part that doesn't even look the same and certainly won't fit. And we don't have any way of knowing that by just looking at the catalog. As for the later ones, I've read that the later fuel filler systems will allow the gas to be pumped in at a much higher rate. And since Big Blue is both thirsty and shy about allowing gas to be pumped in, I need to explore what the differences are. But, at this point I can't tell you if it is just the filler neck or the hoses, or the combo. Perhaps someone else can enlighten us? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
