Joe:
Look under your car at the fuel tank. On the fuel filter side (Passenger)
you should find a tag with some letters and numbers. Right above that is a
two letter code. Prior to 93 they are AA=16 gal and BA=18.6 gal from 93 on
they are FC=18.6 gal and I don't know the standard tank code. Supposedly all
SHO's got the 18.6 gallon baffled tanks. Ford did have a TSB on fuel slosh
noise and people on the list have complained about fuel noise also. So maybe
not all big tanks got the baffles? I don't how to tell if the tank has
baffles or not.
