ESP inoperative FORD F650 2012 12.G Owners Manual

EMISSIONS CONTROL SYSTEM
To ensure the emissions control systems operate effectively, you should
have the services listed in the maintenance schedule performed at the
specified time and mileage intervals. You should avoid running out of fuel
or turning off the ignition while the vehicle is in motion, especially at
high speeds.
WARNING:Because of high engine compartment and exhaust
system temperatures resulting from emissions equipment, do not
park, idle or operate your vehicle in dry grass or other dry ground
cover where the possibility of ground fire exists.
Do not make unauthorized modifications to the engine or vehicle.
Modifications causing increased amounts of unburned fuel to reach the
exhaust system can significantly increase the temperature of the engine
compartment and/or the exhaust system.
Avoid driving your vehicle if it does not operate properly. If the engine
diesels (more than five seconds of engine run-on after shut-off), misfires,
surges, stalls or backfires, see your dealer. Be alert for fluid leakage,
odor, smoke, loss of oil pressure, or charge indicator or over temperature
warning.
Vehicles equipped with a diesel engine CANNOT use diesel fuel blended
with waste oil if equipped with a catalytic converter-muffler. Waste lube
oil blending in fuel plugs the catalytic converter-muffler, resulting in a
significant loss of engine power.
