[Mobile-Portable] FORD FUEL PUMP NOISE ON HF

[Steve Weber]

Does anyone know what the fuel pump mod is?  I just bought a 94 
F-150m but have not tried HF because the fuel pump noise on my 93 
Ford Aerostar was so miserable that I gave up.  Did you buy your 
truck new, or could it be quiet because a previous owner had the fuel 
pump filter installed.  I asked the local Ford part's manager about 
the mod and he had no clue as to what I was talking about, which was 
very discouraging.

After hearing about tour experience, I am inspired to try again.
