TRUCK STARTED ACCELERATING UNCONTROLLABLY TO THE POINT THAT BRAKES COULD NOT STOP VEHICLE, ONLY TURNING OFF ENGINE WOULD DO SO. THIS PROBLEM WAS NOT CAUSE BY FLOORMATS ! TO THIS POINT (2/17) DEALER HASN'T FOUND ANYTHING WRONG. THE TRUCK HAS EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM THREE TIMES IN THE LAST 500 MILES. THE LAST TIME TRUCK CONTINUED TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM WHEN RESTARTED. IT HAD TO BE TOWED TO THE DEALER. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS CONDITION, I BARELY WAS ABLE TO CONTROL THE TRUCK THE LAST TIME.*AK

FUEL SYSTEM, OTHER
CNG TRANSFER TUBING (CONNECTS FILL CONNECTOR, 3600 # CNG STORAGE CYLINDER, AND ENGINE SIDE OF FUEL SYSTEM TOGETHER) PASSES THROUGH THE FLOOR OF THE TRUCK BED AND HOLE IS SHIELDED WITH A RUBBER GROMMET. THE TUBING ON THIS AND OUR OTHER IDENTICAL TRUCK WERE FOUND TO BE CHAFING THROUGH THE GROMMETS DUE TO THE ANGLE AT WHICH THEY PASSED THROUGH THE RELATIVELY SMALL (1") HOLE IN THE BED. IT APPEARS AS THOUGH THIS WOULD HAVE CREATED A FAILURE IN THE TUBING IF LEFT ALONE. WE ADJUSTED THE ROTATION OF THE TUBING FITTINGS AND WE BELIEVE WE HAVE SOLVED THIS PROBLEM OURSELVES, BUT DUE TO THE FACT THAT THESE ARE FORD FACTORY INSTALLED GFI CNG SYSTEMS, WE THOUGHT WE SHOULD GENERATE SOME ACTION. WE ALSO HAVE THREE GFI AFTERMARKET CNG KITS THAT HAVE ALMOST THE SAME CONFIGURATION BUT THE FUEL LINE HOLE CUT INTO THE BOTTOM OF THE BED IS APPROXIMATELY 2" AND HAS A BOOT THAT CENTERS THE TUBING IN THAT HOLE. THIS APPEARS TO OFFER MUCH BETTER PROTECTION TO THE TUBING
