ENGINE OIL CHECK
Check the level before starting the engine
and make sure that the level is between
the MIN and the MAX marks.
1. Make sure that your vehicle is on level ground.
2. Switch the engine off and wait 10 minutes for the oil to drain into the oil
pan.
3. Remove the dipstick and wipe it with a clean, lint-free cloth. Replace the
dipstick and remove it again to check
the oil level.
If the oil level is at the minimum mark, add
oil immediately.
Adding Engine Oil
Note: Do not remove the filler cap when
the engine is running.
Note: Do not add oil further than the MAX
mark. Oil levels above the MAX mark may
cause engine damage. Only use oils certified for gasoline engines
by the American Petroleum Institute (API).
An oil with this trademark symbol
conforms to the current engine and
emission system protection standards and
fuel economy requirements of the
International Lubricants Specification
Advisory Council (ILSAC), comprised of
U.S. and Japanese automobile
manufacturers.
1. Remove the filler cap.
2. Add engine oil that meets the Ford
specifications. See Capacities and
Specifications (page 270).
3. Wipe off any spilled oil.
4. Replace the filler cap. Turn it until you feel a strong resistance.
Operating in Cold Climates and
Short Driving Cycles
Some gasoline engines may experience a
buildup of moisture in the engine oil if
repeatedly operated in cold weather and
short driving cycles that do not fully warm
the engine.
When you see a thick milky substance
under the oil cap, this indicates moisture
is present.
This condition can be more prevalent in
gas electric hybrid vehicles that run the gas
engine for very short driving cycles.
