Inertia Fuel Shutoff Switch Reset Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Ford Pickup and 2002 Ford Cab & Chassis. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
WARNING: If you see or smell gasoline at any time other than during fueling, DO NOT reset Inertia Fuel Shutoff (IFS) switch.
NOTE: With IFS in CLOSED position, reset button can be depressed an additional 1/16" against the spring.

Turn ignition off. Check for fuel leaks in engine compartment. If no leak is present, reset IFS switch by pushing reset button on top of switch. Turn ignition switch to ON position or START position for a few seconds, then to OFF position again. Again, check for leaking fuel.
