I own a 1992 Ford F250 and a 96 Ford F150. Both have dual tanks.on both vehicles the front fuel gauge has stopped functioning and when using the rear tank it tranfers fuel to the front tank resulting in fuel spilling out.with the guages not functioning there is no notice of when the front tank is overfilling.this is a fire hazard as well as an environmental issue.I have spoke to the customer relations person at our local Ford dealer and was told that it was not a dealer issue.I have inserted an incident, however the problem is a recurring problem.
