Ford said that the low fuel warning light on some 2007-08 Ford Edge and Lincoln MKX models may come on even when the fuel tank is full. 1, 2007, usually occurs just after a tank fill-up, and is due to the fuel pump float binding against the lip of the metal baffle in the fuel tank. Start the job by siphoning the gasoline and removing the fuel tank. Next, remove the fuel pump from the tank opening. Now temporarily reinstall the fuel pump half way into the tank opening and check the clearance between the float and the baffle. The clearance should be 1 5/32-inch with the float all the way down and 13/16-inch with the float all the way up. Readjust the baffle as necessary to get the desired clearances. To complete the fix, reinstall the fuel pump, put the tank back into the vehicle, fill the tank with fuel, turn on the ignition and make sure the low fuel light is off. Source: www.tirebusiness.com
