I just did the forscan update to correct my dte display. I took it to a dealer and they said it cant be done. 2 other dealers said the same thing. thanks truck stuff!!!
I did this swap a few years ago. The 26 gallon original tank had me stopping all the time when towing. I never did the DTE update, Ford wanted $150 to do it and I just never saw it as worth it.
For anyone on the generic salvage search sites looking for a 36 gallon tank, I want to warn you that there is a typical problem with salvage yards coding 23 gallon tanks as 36 gallon tanks. You must insist that they go and measure the tank. The 36 gallon tank is 74" versus the 23 gallon that is 62". After searching for 12 months within 100 miles of my home I finally found a scrap yard about an hour and 15 minutes away that has a fuel tank and matching pump. It cost $158 for both. I also bought the heat shield directly from Ford for $60, but the scrap yard I just found said they're just going to keep it on the tank I'm picking up since they would never need to sell it. I'm wondering if I should attempt this myself and do the Forscan myself, or if I should try and tackle it all by myself
@@TruckStuff1 This has been horrible for a year. I ended up going to multiple salvage yards to find a 23 gallon tank labeled as a 36 gallon. Even this morning when I picked mine up, after I told them they needed to measure the tank and they reassured me they had, they had a damn 23 gallon tank waiting for me. As I was about to blow up the dude who actually works out in the yard said there was a 2015 he was pretty sure had the 36 gallon tank. He told me to go into town and grab a sandwich and come back. I came back and someone finally had a 36 gallon tank for me. I come home and then discover they mislabeled a 23 gallon pump for a 36 gallon..... I feel like I'm going to explode with frustration. I just want to get this done!
Great video. I'm doing this in a couple days. Too bad you lost some of that footage. Other video's of this job disconnect all the fuel and evap lines that are attached to the top of the tank. Your way seems much easier. The salvage yard where I got my tank, cut the submersible fuel line vent tube that attaches to the fuel pump inside the tank. I would swap the existing one, but their impossible pull off the barbed connectors. Found one on Amazon of all places. A 6 inch fuel line is holding up my job. Did you run into issue? Thanks
@uacmarine19 The corrugated tubing from Amazon worked perfectly. I'll try to put up the link. I ended up breaking the vent line connector at the fuel pump. That was really hard to find. Finally, I found one on eBay. Took weeks to get it. Lube those up and be careful.
@uacmarine19 I didn't jack the truck up or disconnect the drive shaft. Just remove filler hose and tank straps, lower it to the ground with cribbing, disconnecting along the way. Slide the old tank out and new one in. When I got it back together, the truck wouldn't start. The wiring plug to fuel pump wasn't snapped all the way in. Had to drop the tank again. WD-40 all that stuff is the best advice I can give. Good luck 👍
Great video! I do want to point out something for those who have or wanted to attempt this. For towing/hauling, this decreases your payload by approximately 100 lbs. Just keep they in mind when/if you begin towing/hauling items.
Wanted to provide an update on my swap. Everything went fairly smoothly with me and my brother doing the work; having 4 hands worked great, and I'd recommend finding someone to help. Since I have the 2.7L with the valve on one of the fuel lines, we opted to use the existijg fuel lines to avoid the CEL issue since the 36 gallon lines don't have this valve. Straps came off easy enough and we slowly dropped the front end of the tank and slowly uncapped the lines and harneses. A few of the harnesses on the pump are challenging to get off, but just be mindful of clips and buttons. I think every connector was different. Popping off the filler neck by the tank is a must. Once that is over the most challenging part will be reconnecting the filler neck. My brother physically got under the tank and held it up in place while I got the neck reconnected. I thought we were in the clear until I realized my forscan was registered to my old computer. After struggling to find an access key for about 45 minutes, I finally got the DTE fixed on the dash cluster
I'm looking into doing this swap on my 2018 SCREW 5.0, just wanted to let anyone that was interested know that the part number has changed to (KL3Z-9002-D), this part number replaced the one in the description and a couple of others.
What happens if you do not update the software and you simply change the tank size? I'm assuming if this is not done, the only thing it would affect is your milage per gallon reading. Once the computer calculates the miles per gallon, the Distance to empty should be accurate (which is all I really care about). Or am I missing something?
I want to do this swap trying to find a tank right now atleast local to me does any one have a part number for the tank and pump and what else is needed
What is the difference between the 23 gallon pump and the 36 gallon pump. If the only difference between the tanks is the length and the depth is the same, why do you need a different pump? Are the connections between the two pumps the same? Is there something else that needs changed or modified? If the pumps are different, what are the part numbers for each? I don't want to change the tank and install the wrong pump. Great video btw.
@@TruckStuff1 i really couldn't understand the end with getting it programmed to truck. Could you make a video and send to me on that part and what I'll need
I called they said the 36 gallons $1,200.00 and buy separate probably the heat shield and gas pump and program and if you give it so someone could do it probably 3k
Guys in parts departments only know what Ford tells them fits. They look at a parts interchange list, but had no idea if parts actually work or fit. Yes you can do this.
So just to be clear, I can swap a 2020 f150 gas tank for a 36 gallon tank and have them update the gas computer system to show that the truck now has a 36 gallon tank.

Does the dash now read that you have more mileage? Did you go from 400 miles range to like 650? That would be nice if the dash knew you swapped it and had the range meter that knew it as well. Does that make sense? Thanks for the video.
Are the fuel pumps interchangeable or do you need a new one for the larger tank? I assume it’s a deeper tank. I already have the 36 gallon but I’m asking for a poor bud who has the 23 and a thirsty 5.0. His is a 2019 though. Can’t imagine it’d be much different.
Truck Stuff FYI for anyone trying to obtain a 36 gallon tank. The 26 is the exact same length. The 36 is taller in the fuel pump area. The 36 I got has the number 9L34-9010-dc. The DC is the part to look for, my 26 gallon as same part number except the end was CB.
@@TruckStuff1 nope. They're the same length. The 23 is shorter but the 26 is the same length as the 36 about 71.5 inches. I've got the 36 in my truck now.
Hello awesome video. Was wondering if you can make a video on how to use for scan to program it. Also can forscan program the Steering Column Control Module for 2016 f150
Hello TruckStuff; Thanks so much for this video. Question: What is the difference between the 23 gal fuel pump/sender versus the 36? The heat shield is understandable. Is the geometry at the pump/pick-up/sender different 23 versus 36?
My total cost was about $140 for the tank and pump. Only basic hand tools are needed (screw driver and mallet, 15mm socket, etc...), and an impact wrench helps with the strap bolts. On my website I have a full step by step guide. Treyspooner.wix.com/truckstuff
Yep, mine were very hard too. Try dropping the tank as much as possible without putting tension on the line. Remember that each fuel connector has two clips; a safety lock and the actual release. They aren't easy
@@TruckStuff1 all I see on the big one is a button on each side. No other clips or anything. You have to push them both in very firm, then I don't have enough hands. Mine is a 2017 so maybe slightly different.
Did buying the fuel line tool help? I just watched a few videos, but not at the fuel tank, that showed popping the guard off and using the plastic tool to press’s spring is n the fitting. Is this the type fitting used.
I looked for a long time for a 36 gallon tank at a scrap yard. I drove 3 hours round trip and the moron sold me a 23 gallon and then gave me attitude when I told him I wasn't driving it back and they could have someone pick it up
I commute to work and just like driving in general. I have a 2012 F-150 EcoBoost that I'm thinking about doing this on, I was wondering if your trucks computer automatically sensed the bigger tank? Did the estimated long range mileage increased on the dash? Thanks

I have a 2017, F-150, 3.5L, sport, with a 6in lift and 35s. I also have the 36 gallon tank. It’s fantastic, minus the cost of gas in California ( $4.64 X 33 gallons on average). Ouch.

Because 90% of truck owners just use them as grocery getters anyway. If you're driving highway and get, say 24 MPG, you'll get 550 miles on a 23 gallon tank. That's pretty good. Of course, if you use it like an actual truck, town 7k lbs, you'll get like....10-12 MPG so only 230 miles on a tank or so.
Ford made 2 mistakes in my eyes. The pinto and tanks to small for trucks. Take my truck 92 f150 5.8L flareside only has 15 gallon on mine. Says 19 online but i have ran her empty and refilled top off at 15 gallons. I want a 23 minimum
Who else is planning on doing this swap? Let me know!

I’m considering it. Any upclose shots of the tricky connectors you mentioned?

Lol
@@VicMKV My 2.7 came with the factory 36. Now if I could just find the fuel filter...
Maybe I’m slow and missed it, but where did you order the bigger tank from?
I picked it up at a local salvage yard. Most places wont ship used tanks because of legal restrictions.
If i wanted to change the tank to a 36 is there a difference if it was from a 5.0 going into a 3.5?
No difference
Looking to do this on my 21. There really isn’t to much a difference between the 13th gen and 14th gen

what tools to take fuel lines apart? don't you need ford fuel line tool to release??
No, they are all quick release tabs
Where can I find this tank I have search every where and only find for the diesel
Did your 26 gallon tank straps work on the new 36 gallon tank?
What type of connectors was there, do you have to use a quick release tool ??
It's all quick release with your hands, but they are exposed to so much grime that they can be very difficult. No tools required though.

It's great! But these gas prices right now hurt.
WTF they even put a 23 gallons in a truck ??
Must have been the engineers who got reassigned when they stopped making cars.
Because 90% of truck owners just use them as grocery getters anyway. If you're driving highway and get, say 24 MPG, you'll get 550 miles on a 23 gallon tank. That's pretty good. Of course, if you use it like an actual truck, town 7k lbs, you'll get like....10-12 MPG so only 230 miles on a tank or so.
Does this apply to all ford trucks
I’m asking because I read that you can only swap from a 23 to a 36 if you have the eco boost engine
Is this true?
It applies to all 15-17 F150s. It doesn't matter what engine.18+ are be very similar
Does it apply to 2014 models as well?
I am curious too, I have a 2014 as well.
Where did you source the 36 gal tank?
Car-parts.com from a local yard
Thx vid thx I have a 2019 with a 23 and want to up grade to a 36 gal very help vid.
Glad to help!
this would be good for towing when your mileage takes a hit.
I tow a lot and it's great!
Ford made 2 mistakes in my eyes. The pinto and tanks to small for trucks. Take my truck 92 f150 5.8L flareside only has 15 gallon on mine. Says 19 online but i have ran her empty and refilled top off at 15 gallons. I want a 23 minimum
By volume it's probably 19, but it cant use all 19 (even worse design flaw)
300 miles range extender gtg!
you got lucky for the cost!!!
Missed showing half the job. You can do better.
Can this be done if the wheelbase is different? Found one on marketplace but it’s for a short bed while I have a long bed
Same tanks for all wheel bases
What wheels do you have?
Vision Nemesis
Does this effect the mpg in anyway?
Nope
