Did Ford solder the fuel necks into the tank?


Any help is appreciated.


Thanks in advance.
Yes, it was swaged in and the soldered with something much akin to silicon bronze. While they can be replaced, you probably need to think this through and make sure your skillset matches the task before you. If you have the resources, then by all means give it a go.
