The Fuel Pump Shut-off Switch
*
[ER00400(R)05/96]
If the engine cranks but does not start or if you have had a
collision, the fuel pump shut-off switch may have been
triggered. The shut-off switch is a device that stops the fuel
pump when your vehicle has been involved in a substantial jolt.
*
[ER00500(R)05/96]
For information on how to check and reset the fuel pump
shut-off switch, seeFuel pump shut-off switchin the Index.

Fuses
[ER00800(R)01/96]
Fuses protect your vehicle's electrical system from overloading.
If electrical parts in your vehicle are not working, the system
may have been overloaded and blown a fuse. Before you
replace or repair any electrical parts, check the appropriate
fuses.
[ER00900(R)01/96]
The following charts tell you which fuses protect each electrical
part of your vehicle. If a fuse blows, all the parts of your
vehicle that use that circuit will not work.
*
[ER01000(R)01/96]
Once you have determined which fuses to check, follow the
procedures underChecking and replacing fuseslater in this
chapter.

[MC32770(R)01/96]
Fuels can also be harmful if absorbed through the skin. When
refueling, be careful not to splash fuel on yourself or your
clothing. If fuel is splashed on the skin, promptly remove
contaminated clothing and wash the skin thoroughly with soap
and water.
*
[MC32772(R)01/96]
Fuels can cause severe eye irritation and possibly eye damage. If
fuel is splashed in the eyes, remove contact lenses (if worn),
flush with large amounts of water for 15 minutes, and seek
medical attention.
*
[MC32774(R)01/96]
If you are taking the medication ªAntabuseº or other forms of
disulfiram for the treatment of alcoholism, vapor or skin contact
with a gasoline-methanol blend may cause the same kind of
adverse reaction as drinking an alcoholic beverage. In sensitive
individuals, serious personal injury or sickness could result.
Consult a physician promptly if you experience an adverse
reaction.

[MC32800(R)01/96]
Running Out of Fuel
*
[MC32810(R)01/96]
If your vehicle runs out of fuel, try to stop on level ground
away from traffic. Add at least two gallons (8 liters) of fuel to
start your vehicle again. If your vehicle is not on level ground,
you may need as much as five gallons (20 liters) of fuel to start
it.
*
[MC32812(R)01/96]
You may need to crank the engine several times before the fuel

Cleaning the Exterior Lamps
*
[MC50510(R)01/96]
Do not use dry paper towel, chemical solvents or abrasive
cleaners to clean the lamps, as these may cause scratches or
crack the lamps.
*
[MC51000(R)01/96]
Cleaning the Engine
*
[MC51020(R)01/96]
A clean engine is more efficient because a buildup of grease and
dirt acts as an insulator, keeping the engine warmer than usual.
*
[MC51030(R)01/96]
n
Extreme care must be used if a power washer is used to
clean the engine. The high pressure fluid could penetrate
sealed parts and assemblies causing damage or malfunctions.
*
[MC51040(R)04/96]
n
In order to avoid possible cracking of the engine block or
fuel injection pump, do not spray a hot engine or injection
pump with cold water.
[MC51050(R)01/96]
n
The alternator, coils and air intake must be covered.
Covering these components will help prevent water damage.
*
[MC51060(R)01/96]
n
Never wash or rinse the engine while it is running. Water
getting into the engine may cause internal damage.

Fabric
*
[MC51542(R)01/96]
Remove dust and loose dirt with a whisk broom or a vacuum
cleaner. Remove fresh spots immediately. Follow the directions
that come with the cleaner.
*
[MC51544(R)01/96]
NOTE: Before using any cleaner, test it on a small, hidden
area of fabric. If the fabric's color or texture is
adversely affected by a particular cleaner, do not use
it.

automatic shutoff of the fuel pump nozzle.
*
[MC57900(R)01/96]
NOTE: During extended periods of vehicle storage (60 days or
more), fuel may deteriorate due to oxidation. This can
damage rubber and other polymers in the fuel system
and may also clog small orifices.
*
[MC58000(R)01/96]
Ford Gas Stabilizer should be added whenever actual or
expected storage periods exceed 60 days. Follow the instructions
on the label. The vehicle should then be operated at idle speed
to circulate the additive throughout the fuel system.
