Component: Engine And Engine Cooling > Exhaust System > Emission Control
Manufacturer: Ford Motor Company
Description:
Vehicles are subject to excessive underhood temperatures and fuel system pressures in severe duty applications.
Consequencs:
This creates potential for fuel expulsion from the fuelfiller pipe which in the presence of an ignition source, could result in afire.
Notes:
Install modification kits to minimize possibility of fuel expulsion and to shield underbody components from exhaust system heat.

Component: Fuel System, Gasoline > Storage > Tank Assembly > Mounting
Manufacturer: Ford Motor Company
Description:
Fuel leak at the top of the front fuel tank in the area of the vapor valve grommet. grommet may split due to compressive load when installed in the fuel tank.
Consequencs:
Fuel may leak from vapor valve and become the source offuel for a fire.
Notes:
Installation of a newly designed vapor valve grommet.

Component: Engine And Engine Cooling > Exhaust System > Emission Control
Manufacturer: Ford Motor Company
Description:
Expulsion of fuel due to overpressurization.
Consequencs:
Fuel or fuel vapors in the presence of an ignitionsource can cause a fire.
Notes:
Modification of the base fuel venting and emission control system to reduce operating temperatures and fuel system pressures.

Component: Fuel System, Gasoline > Delivery > Hoses, Lines/piping, And Fittings
Manufacturer: Ford Motor Company
Description:
Spring lock fuel line coupling may not be properly engaged.
Consequencs:
Coupling could disengage due to fuel pressure,vibration, and engine movements; this would cause loss of fuel which, inpresence of an ignition source, creates a fire risk.
Notes:
Install retainer clips over the couplings to prevent coupling separation and fuel leakage.
