NHTSA campaign 08V523000 · reported October 8, 2008 · ROUSH PERFORMANCE PRODUCTS, INC. · 213 vehicles potentially affected

The problem
Roush is recalling 213 my 2007-2008 ford f-150 trucks altered to operate using liquid propane injection. The hydro-carbon paper affixed to the inside of the airbox lid with adhesive may become dislodged during operation.

Dealers will replace the airbox lid with a new one that includes the hydro-carbon paper which has been affixed using an adhesive promoter and greater pressure as recommended by the manufacturer free of charge. The recall began on october 21, 2008. Owners may contact roush at 1-866-307-6788.

Fuel system, gasoline: storage, tank assembly

NHTSA campaign 07V278000 · reported June 28, 2007 · FORD MOTOR COMPANY · 203 vehicles potentially affected

The problem
On certain trucks built with 26 gallon fuel tanks, the fuel tank may have a depression at the seam between the top and bottom halves of the tank (not visible from outside the fuel tank). If a depression is large enough, fuel may permeate the fuel tank wall resulting in a fuel odor, or a "service engine soon" indicator light.
The risk
If left uncorrected, a fuel leak could eventually develop. A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source could result in a fire.
The fix
Dealers will replace the fuel tank free of charge. The recall began on june 25, 2007. Owners may contact ford at 1-866-436-7332.

Feb 23, 2026 · Engine

I have had a coolant leak but haven't been able to find it until now. It is below the thermostat housing, between the manifolds and the metal tube that hooks the bottom of the thermostat to the manifold.
