Third Generation Ford Mustang Fuel Tank
Foxbody Mustang Fuel Tanks At Top Flight Automotive
Ford Motor Company enthusiasts may remember the Foxbody Mustang generation fondly. Showcasing the all-new “Fox” platform at the time, Foxbody Mustang releases were widely successful in terms of sales from 1979 through 1993.
The automotive industry experienced hardships as a result of the 1973 United States oil crisis, so engineers at Ford had to reinvent the Mustang for customers focused on fuel efficiency. This meant designers headed back to the drawing board to make the Mustang lightweight and aerodynamic. The Foxbody generation still stands as the longest-running Mustang series to date.
The experts at Top Flight Automotive know you want to keep your vehicle on the road as long as possible. That’s why we bring you everything necessary to maintain and restore the Foxbody Mustang fuel system to hold collector value.
Why Replace the Foxbody Mustang Fuel System?
Some Foxbody Mustangs are now 40 years old. No matter if you are an original owner of a 1979-1993 Mustang or recently purchased one secondhand, maintenance is critical to keep vintage cars in peak condition.
The fuel tank is responsible for holding gasoline mixtures the engine requires to function. Leaks, punctures and cracks across the gas tank put you at risk of running out of fuel or creating a fire hazard. Some common indicators of a faulty Foxbody fuel pump or fuel tank include:
- The engine is unable to start.
- There is a sudden drop in fuel efficiency.
- You can hear the engine stuttering.
- The smell of gasoline enters the cabin.
