ON E350 SHUTTLE BUSES THE RETAINER STRAPS FOR THE MIDSHIP FUEL TANKS ARE ATTACHED TO TWO FUEL TANK CROSSMEMBER SUPPORTS. THESE SUPPORTS MAY BE SUSCEPTIBLE TO DURABILITY FRACTURES AT THE INBOARD ATTACHMENT LOCATIONS FOR THE STRAPS. IF THE SUPPORTS AT THE INBOARD ATTACHMENTS WERE TO FRACTURE,THE FUEL TANK WOULD DROP ABOUT ONE INCH BEFORE BEING RESTRAINED BY THE RIGID STRAPS AND CREATE THE POTENTIAL FOR FUEL SPILLAGE.
A DIODE IN THE ELECTRIC FUEL PUMP CIRCUIT MAY BE OF INADEQUATE CAPACITY TO WITHSTAND CURRENT DRAW DURING ENGINE STARTING. THIS WOULD CAUSE A SHORT CIRUCIT IN THE ELECTRICAL SUPPLY TO THE FUEL PUMP WHICH WOULD RESULT IN NORMAL ENGINE STARTING BUT FUEL WOULD NOT CONTINUE TO BE PROVIDED TO THE ENGINE. VEHICLES WITH THIS CONDITION WOULD STALL WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING AFTER A SHORT PERIOD OF OPERATION.
