Very noisy fuel pump

I'd run it as low as possible before doing the job. I'd get a small can of gas and put it in the trunk, then run the car until it stalls (might want to anticipate it will stall.. so better not drive freeways. when it stalls, put in a little gas to make it home and start the job. The more gas in the tank the tougher it is... an empty or almost empty tank should make it a piece of cake.

I guess no one knows how to siphon gas from the tank?

Never hurt me and if you're good at it you'll never know what gas tastes like. ;)

Have you checked the fuel filter?

Before you go doing a remove & replace on the tank and pump try replacing the filter.

I had my fuel tank pump replaced a while back too. It started making more and more noise and was getting annoying. It turned out that the little relay under the driver's seat that turns the pump on and off was hanging up and the pump would stay running after you shut off the motor. One time it ran the battery down. Who knows how long that was going on but I replaced the relay just before having the pump replaced. The parts guy said there were a lot of these faulty relays being replaced. I even took it apart and got the contacts to hang up and stay closed by turning it on and off repeatedly with a power supply. I think ford should have had a recall on that item. Fred
