2002-2005 Thunderbird fuel (gas) tank and Evap system. Gas tank removed from a 2004 FORD Thuderbird. #ThunderbirdBob www.TbirdBob.com We rebuild FEM'S and REM'S
I have an O2 T-Bird. Sometimes it starts on the first try but mostly tried to take three to four times to start. Changed fuel line filter. Didn't make any difference. And I can hear the fuel pump when you turn the key.🤷🏽♂️
I have an 03 .After winter storage it would not start Tracked it down to a blow 15 amp fuse in the trunk Replaced and it blew again. Do I need a new fuel pump. Best guess
Very helpful info Bob, thks. My '02 is showing signs of fuel starvation on hills and big curves. No codes thrown, it just shudders, shakes and takes off again. The fuel pump is relatively new, but got it cheap off eBay some 2 years ago. Like most I am/was confused by the saddlebag tank, syphoning operation versus main pump but now get the big picture (I hope). Do you have both fuel units? If so, pls provide contact info to discuss further.
I have a 2005 Ford Thunderbird ~ just bought it about 6 months ago on a used car lot (Scott Davis Auto Sales, Turlock, Ca.). They got me good...i learned quickly after a couple of days that the car dies when it gets just below a half a tank. In other words i have to keep at least a half tank of gas at all times. From what i understand this is not an easy fix. Can anyone steer me in the right direction as far as repair and is it worth it!?!
Keep the videos coming. Very good information
Can you supply parts From 2002 thunderbird fuel line kit KFL-18 or something that will work damaged hoses removing fuel pump

Clean the throttle body and run a can of fuel injector cleaner

@martyjones-nz7xl if the fuel pump fuse blows its probably the fuel pump

Start with replacing coils and plugs

Sounds like you probably need to replace the left side transfer gas pump
