One problem related to other fuel system hoses lines/piping, and fittings has been reported for the 1997 Ford F-150. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
1997 Ford f150 4. 6l 4x4 fuel line is leaking above the transmission where the lines connect between the fuel filter and the top rear of engine. Fuel lines are rubbing on the frame of the truck. Ford has recalled over 600,000 of this model truck for this problem in August, 2000, (Ford mfg. Recall# 00s22) but after speaking with Ford motor company, they stated that my truck was not a part of the recalled trucks even though my truck fit all of the criteria, such as model, date, time, and place of manufacture to the letter. I was told that less than one percent of trucks were affected even though Ford recalled over 600,000 of these trucks for this issue. I've had a previous issue with fuel tank falling out of truck due to faulty straps. Ford replaced straps, but would not repair damaged fuel tank. The fuel system in this truck is very suspect.
