Where is the fuel pump shut off switch on a 98 ford e-150?

The 1998 Ford E-150 doesn't have a readily accessible fuel pump shut-off switch like some other vehicles. There's no single switch you can flip to quickly stop the fuel pump. Fuel delivery is controlled by the vehicle's computer system and various safety features. In the event of a crash, the fuel pump should shut off automatically.

To stop fuel flow in an emergency, you'd need to disconnect the fuel pump's electrical connection (usually near the fuel tank) or deal with the fuel line itself, both of which require some mechanical skill and understanding of your vehicle's fuel system. This is dangerous and should only be attempted if you are experienced and understand the risks involved. Incorrectly handling fuel lines can result in injury or fire.
