I have a 2007 F150 with a 5.4 liter V8 engine. I have talked to many mechanics including my local Ford dealer. They all said that the float valve in the tank broke. The Homelink wireless garage door opener on the drivers side vanity mirror stopped working the same day the fuel gauge stopped working. Is this electrical or were the mechanics correct? I have a habit of running the tank almost completely dry. Is that what broke the float valve? I want your opinions before I pay $700 to have this fixed. Thank you for your advice.
