Question Dual fuel tanks?

Hello everyone. Anyways I've got a 1995 f150 and I'm unable to switch to my rear tank. Now I haven't looked into it "hardcore" yet but I was hoping maybe someone might know if there were any parts that are prone to going out or maybe have had the same problem, thanks.

Default umm.....

WHen the truck is running and I switch to the rear tank, it stalls. Now if I just turn the truck on (acc) and switch it to the rear tank the fuel gauge will read whats in the rear tank.

Switch to the rear tank and turn the ignition on - you shoud hear rear pump. If you'll hear it - this probably means that something's wrong with switching valve. If not - may be the pump or the relay.

If the gauge reads it shouldn't be in the switch or relay. If you don't hear it prime all you can do is pull the conector at the pump and see if you have power.

If it stalls when you switch to the rear tank the rear pump isn't working. No power to the pump or bad pump.
