Size of the Fuel Tank for 1989 Ford Econoline
The Ford Econoline (E-150) model of van was introduced in the 1960s and had a major redesign in 1975 that lasted through 1991. As of 2010, models of this van are still in production. This van is still the base model that most commercial delivery vans are built off of, and it shares many chassis and undercarriage elements with the F-series truck.
Gas Tank Capacity
The original equipment fuel tank for the Ford E-150 van is a 22-gallon fuel tank. Replacement parts are available.
Gas Tank Placement
The E-150 places the fuel tank behind the rear axle of the van in the 1989 model; after 1992, the placement of the fuel tank was changed to accommodate a 37-gallon fuel tank.
Gas Tank Construction
Like nearly every gas tank made since the 1960s, the gas tanks for the E-150 are made out of steel, coated with zinc as an anti-corrosion barrier.
