Tank always full.

    sitting a long time not likely the problem.  sometimes, parts these days, right out of the box, have issues however, motorcraft is ususally highest quality.  i have a 98 f-150 and motorcraft parts are always the recommended replacements that the folks on the f150online forum always recommend.  do a search of that forum and/or post your question there...........it's a great site and has really helped me out with my truck.  good luck.
