Find out what years your tank crosses to in case you have to go that route

That is a tough one. Wish I knew more about the Fords. '68 to '74 is second generation. I found tanks back to '75, then Poof... I wasn't able to find out much to help you, not sure what will fit if you can't find a tank. But you could if you had too, some of the more knowledgeable Ford Vanner's on here would for sure know more. Good Hunting, and Wrenching on this. http://ecat.spectrapremium.com/a/40470http://www.gastankdepot.com/if15a-gas-tank-ford-econoline-van-e-series-1975-1977.htmlhttp://secondgeneconolines.net/

Tank weld is the only of their products rated for use in gasoline. ANd then they only claim it's only "resistant".

You may need to adapt a generic aftermarket fuel tank to your van. I have never worked on a mid-Ford so I don't know what the gas tank looks like or what aftermarket fuel tank options might work.
