Gracias Thanks for all you do.

[@grnsgottaM]

You’re a life saver! 32 years of putting fuel in my vehicles, and it only takes one mistake to ruin the day. 3 gallons of 91 in my Powerstroke, ruined an evening of fishing, before it could take place. Had it towed home, removed about 10 gallons of junk fuel, followed by flushing it one gallon of diesel at a time, five times. I didn’t get 100% of it, but the smell of gas is gone, no service lights and have run almost a tank of fresh fuel through it. Certainly better than having to drop the tank! Thanks again.

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

[@crasher88]

For anyone wondering this works for the 2023 year modle as well just follow the step. Takes a bit the first time you do it. Figuring everything out and getting the hose set up properly but thus saved me from having to drop a completely filled tank. Thanks ARod

How does the 2021 F450 fuel system work? I have one that isnt using fuel from the rear tank but front tank works fine, and there is flow into the rear tank but no pump, is the main front pump the pump for the rear tank somehow? This one has me stumped!

[@natedawg9806]

You can take a battery and some wire leads and touch them too the sending unit and wa lah All you need is a wiring diagram or blind luck or just turn the key on and pump out thru the filter

[@noellwilson1273]

I’m working on a 1996 E-350. Two questions: 1. Is there any reason not to pull the core out of the Schraeder valve on the fuel rail and attach a hose there? 2. I’m still trying to get to the electrical connector that attaches to the fuel pump since I suspect that the pump is bad. I see in the factory manual that to empty a tank they recommend ”connect the Rotunda Fuel Storage Tanker 164-R320 1 suction pump to the fuel hose connection at the tank.” That SOUNDS like they put a suction on the discharge line and suck fuel through the pump. Does anyone know if that works? I tried taking a suction at the Schraeder valve on the fuel injector rail with a TopSider vacuum oil change tank/vacuum pump and it seems like I emptied about a quart of fuel but didn’t draw from the tank. Dropping the tank is last on my list.

[@natedawg9806]

Not the way I’ve done it but nice hack

Hello. Great video!! If I accidentally filled my 2020 F250 tank with gas, and keyed it on, but not started. What would you recommend? I would like to save some $$$ and DIY. Thank you!!

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

If you had turned the key on with DEF you'd be str8 F**Ked right now. I have had them run & drive in in gas & have saved it. DO NOT TURN THE KEY ON. Go disconnect that module you saw me, then turn your key on to tow it. You will need to follow this video, drain tank via steps....new filter.......prime the system after fillin tank & just let it idle for 10 or 15 mins without hitting throttle. Good luck

I have a 2022 power stroke F350 crew cab duel. I accidentally added 13.4 gallons of gas in the tank to fill if the rest of the way up. I started it for 30 seconds to move it and now need to get it cleaned out. Will your method hurt any of the other internal parts like hi pressure pump? I just don’t want to fry a $21,000 engine.

[@robinshytle7644]

Awesome video! Hope this helps me. I dumbassedly filled my tank with 87 gas and drove back home (2 miles). It ran fine all the way home. The next morning started it up and it cranked but started sputtering. I had it towed to dealership and they quoted me $16k for a new fuel system. Put it through insurance and they denied the claim. I just came across your video and thought what the hell let’s give it a go. My question is…if there is regular gas in the tank would it ruin the fuel pump by pumping it out this way. I thought I read that the cp4 pump gets its lubrication from the oil in the diesel. Thoughts? Preciate it!
