[QUOTE="Vegas Sporty, post: 1034869, member: 74136"] FYI Im a 2001 Sport Trac owner as well. If you have the same as mine we don't have a "returnable" fuel system. Which means the fuel rail doesn't have a regulator on it. Which means the fuel regulator is on the fuel pump hidden inside the fuel tank. Google "non-returnable" fuel system and understand a Ford "non-returnable" system and how it works. So don't waist your money on guessing.

Fords answer to pump longevity is by having an on-demand system. On demand is when power is needed give it more fuel. Thats why a fuel pressure tester is useless in your driveway.
