Guidelines. Using a Ford vehicle without the Ford ambulance
preparation package to produce an ambulance voids the Ford warranty
and could result in elevated underbody temperatures, fuel
overpressurization and the risk of fuel expulsion and fires. To determine
whether the vehicle is equipped with the Ford ambulance preparation
package, inspect the information plate on the driver’s side door pillar.
Contact the manufacturer of your vehicle to determine whether the
ambulance manufacturer’s followed Ford’s recommendations.
WARNINGS
Throughout this guide, you will find warnings identified by the
symbol
. Warnings remind you to be especially careful to reduce the
risk of personal injury.
NEW VEHICLE BREAK-IN
Your vehicle does not need an extensive break-in. Try not to drive
continuously at the same speed for the first 1,000 miles (1,600 km) of
new vehicle operation. Vary your speed to allow parts to adjust
themselves to other parts.
Drive your new vehicle at least 500 miles (800 km) before towing a
trailer.
Do not add friction modifier compounds or special break-in oils during
the first few thousand miles (kilometers) of operation, since these
additives may prevent piston ring seating. SeeEngine oilin the
Maintenance and Specificationschapter of this supplement for more
information on oil usage.
DIESEL ENGINE INFORMATION
The Diesel engine fuel system consists of:
•On F-Super Duty vehicles,a frame-mounted Horizontal Fuel
Conditioner Module (HFCM)
•On E-Series vehicles,a Fuel Conditioner Module (FCM) mounted on
the driver-side of the transmission case
•an engine-mounted secondary fuel filter
•a unit injector for each cylinder
The FCM/HFCM acts as a primary fuel filter/water separator which
removes both water and impurities from the fuel. The engine-mounted
fuel filter and the FCM/HFCM filter should be changed at the
recommended service interval. Refer to thescheduled maintenance
informationin this supplement for more information.

1. Turn the key to 4 (ON) without
turning the key to 5 (START).Do
not start the engineuntil the
glow-plug pre-heat indicator
turns off.
2. When the glow plug pre-heat
indicator turns off, turn the key to 5
(START), then release the key as
soon as the engine starts. The glow
plugs will continue to be activated for two minutes after the glow plug
pre-heat indicator
has turned off. If the engine is not started
before the glow plug activation time ends, the glow plugs will need to be
reset by turning the key to 3 (OFF).
3. After the engine starts, allow it to idle for about 15 seconds. Do not
increase engine speed until the oil pressure gauge indicates normal
pressure.
STOPPING THE ENGINE
Turn the ignition to 3 (OFF). To prolong engine life (after extended high
speed or maximum GVW operation), it is recommended that a hot engine
be allowed to operate at low idle for about 7–10 minutes which would
allow sufficient time for the turbocharged engine to cool down.
COLD WEATHER OPERATION
Changing to a lighter grade engine oil also makes starting easier under
these conditions. Refer toEngine oil specificationsin theMaintenance
and Specificationschapter of this supplement.
At temperatures below 20°F (–7°C), Number 2–D diesel fuel may thicken
enough to clog the fuel filter. Your vehicle is equipped with either an
FCM (E-Series) or an HFCM (F-Super Duty) which acts as a fuel
filter/water separator to keep the wax melted which will help prevent
fuel filter clogging. However, if the engine starts but stalls after a short
time and will not restart, the fuel filter(s) may be clogged. For best
results in cold weather, use Number 1–D diesel fuel or “winterized”
Number 2–D diesel fuel which has an additive to minimize wax
formation.

SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE
The scheduled maintenance services in thescheduled maintenance
information of this supplement are required because they are
considered essential to the life and performance of your vehicle.
Use only recommended fuel, lubricants, fluids and service parts
conforming to Ford specifications. Motorcraft parts are designed and
built for best performance in your vehicle.
FUEL REQUIREMENTS
Choosing the right fuel
The engine is designed to use either low sulfur (less than 500 parts per
million) number 1–D or 2–D Diesel fuel or ultra low sulfur diesel (less
than 15 parts per million) fuel only. If your vehicle has a label which
states that ultra low sulfur diesel fuel is required, you must put
ultra low sulfur diesel fuel in your vehicle.
Number 1–D or winter blend number 2–D fuel is recommended at
temperatures below 20°F (-7°C) (see Cold weather operationin the
Driving chapter of this supplement). Diesel fuel containing no more
than 5% of biodiesel may be used. Biodiesel fuel is a product derived
from renewable fuel sources such as vegetable oil, animal fat and cooking
oil. Since it is normal for a small amount of unburned fuel to enter the
crankcase and mix with the engine oil, the use of biodiesel requires that
the engine oil and filter be changed more often. Refer to the Exceptions
section of the Scheduled Maintenance Guide chapter for more
information.

Do not blend used engine oil with diesel fuel under any
circumstances.Blending used oil with the fuel will significantly increase
your vehicle’s exhaust emissions and reduce engine life due to increased
internal wear.
Many of the world’s automakers approved the World-wide Fuel Charter that
recommends diesel fuel specifications to provide improved performance
and emission control system protection for your vehicle. Diesel fuel that
meets the World-wide Fuel Charter should be used when available. Ask
your fuel supplier about fuel that meets the World-wide Fuel Charter.
Diesel Fuel Conditioner
Additives that will improve fuel cetane numbers may be used to
verify/enhance fuel quality. Use Motorcraft Cetane Booster &
Performance Improver, PM-17-A (U.S.) / PM-17-B (Canada) or
equivalent. The customer warranty may be void from using additives that
do not meet or exceed Ford specifications.
Do not use alcohol based additives to correct fuel gelling. This may
result in damage to the fuel injectors/system. Use Motorcraft Anti-Gel &
Performance Improver, PM-18-A (U.S.) / PM-18-B (Canada) or
equivalent. The customer warranty may be void from using additives that
do not meet or exceed Ford specifications.
Fueling tips
If the engine fails to start in 30 seconds, turn the key to the OFF
position and wait 30 seconds before trying again.
Truck stops have pumps and nozzles designed for larger, heavy-duty
trucks. When refueling at truck stops: if the nozzle shuts off repeatedly
when refueling, wait 5–10 seconds; then use a slower rate of flow (don’t
depress the nozzle trigger as far).
If air is allowed to enter the fuel system (during fuel filter change or if
you run out of fuel) the engine will purge the trapped air as it runs. The
engine may run rough and produce white smoke while air is in the
system. This is normal and should correct itself in a short time.
An engine that suddenly becomes noisy or operates poorly after a fuel fill
could be using substandard fuel (i.e., high water content, low cetane
rating or gasoline in the fuel). Diesel fuel should be purchased from a
reputable station which sells a large amount of diesel fuel.
Care should be taken whenever diesel fuel is stored. Use only clean,
approved containers which will prevent the entry of dirt or water.
Diesel fuel must not be stored in a galvanized container. The fuel will
dissolve the zinc in a galvanized container. The zinc will then remain in
solution until it is run through the engine where it will be deposited in
the fuel injectors causing expensive-to-repair damage.

2. Remove and discard the old fuel filter element.
3. Carefully clean the mating surfaces.
Installation - both
The engine will not run properly if the fuel filter is not installed
in housing.
1. Install the new fuel filter and cap seal (Motorcraft Part No. FD-4604,
F-Series and FD-4606, E-Series) into the fuel filter housing.
2. Tighten cap onto fuel filter housing slowly, allowing fuel to soak into
the fuel filter element. Tighten cap until it contacts the housing.
After replacing the fuel filter, the engine will purge the trapped
air as it runs. The engine may run roughly and smoke until the air
is completely eliminated.
Using a fuel which has more than average impurities may require
the fuel filter to be replaced more frequently than the service
interval specifies.
ENGINE OIL
Checking the engine oil level
Because it is normal to add some oil between oil changes, check your
engine oil level each time you stop for fuel. To check the engine oil level
consistently and accurately, the following procedure is recommended:
1. Have engine at normal operating temperature (at least into the
NORMAL range on the engine coolant temperature gauge).
2. Park the vehicle on a level surface, then turn off the engine and open
the hood.
3. Allow at least20 minutesafter engine shutdown to ensure that the
oil contained in the upper parts of the engine has returned to the oil
pan.
4. Protecting yourself from engine heat, pull out the dipstick, wipe it
clean and reinsert fully.
5. Read oil level on both sides of dipstick and use highest level (reading)
for the actual engine oil level.
6. Maintain the oil level between MIN and MAX or the ADD and
OPERATING RANGE on the dipstick by adding oil as required. The
distance from MIN to MAX or ADD to OPERATING RANGE on the
dipstick represents 2.0 quarts (1.9L). Do not overfill. If the oil level
exceeds MAX or OPERATING RANGE, oil consumption may result.

Changing engine oil and filter
Change your oil and filter according to thescheduled maintenance
informationin this supplement. Change more frequently if your vehicle
operation includes extended periods of idling or low-speed operation,
driving for a long time in cold temperatures or driving short distances.
See the following sectionEngine lubrication for severe service
operationfor all severe duty restrictions.
Use Ford Engine Oil Filter Part No. 3C3Z-6731–AA (FL–2016) or
equivalent. These filters protect your engine by filtering harmful,
abrasive or sludge particles. The FL–2016 filters particles significantly
smaller than most available “will-fit” filters.
To replace the filter,
1. Unscrew the oil filter cap and wait a few seconds for the oil to drain
through the built-in drain valve.Note:The filter should be changed
before reinstalling the oil pan drain plug.
2. Reinstall and tighten the oil filter cap.
Do not handle a hot oil filter with bare hands.
Continuous contact with USED motor oil has caused cancer in
laboratory mice. Protect your skin by washing with soap and
water.
Engine lubrication for severe service operation
The following severe service operating conditions require unique engine
maintenance procedures:
•towing a trailer over 1,000 miles (1,600 km)
•sustained, high speed driving at Gross Vehicle Weight Rating
(maximum loaded weight for vehicle operation during hot
weather-above 90°F [32°C]).
•frequent or extended idling (over 10 minutes per hour of normal
driving).
•operating in severe dust conditions.
•frequent, short trips of 10 miles (16 km) or less during freezing
weather

If you are operating your vehicle under any of these conditions, observe
the following service procedures:
•Change engine oil and filter every 5,000 miles (8,000 km).
•Use Motorcraft oil or an equivalent oil conforming to Ford
Specification WSS-M2C171–D or API categories, CI–4/SL, CI-4 PLUS or
DHD-1. If CI-4 PLUS oil is not available CI-4 or CH-4 is acceptable.
For more information refer thescheduled maintenance information
section of this supplement.
AIR FILTER
When replacing the air filter element, use the Motorcraft air filter
element listed. Refer to theMotorcraft part numberschart in this
chapter.
To reduce the risk of vehicle damage and/or personal burn
injuries do not start your engine with the air cleaner removed
and do not remove it while the engine is running.
Failure to use the correct air filter element may result in severe
engine damage.
•E-series air filter element:
1. Disconnect the hoses from the air cleaner outlet tube.
2. Loosen the clamp and disconnect
the air cleaner outlet tube.

Tampering with noise control system prohibited
Federal law prohibits the following acts or the causing thereof: (1) The
removal or rendering inoperative by any person other than for purposes
of maintenance, repair or replacement of any device or element of design
incorporated into any new vehicle for the purpose of noise control prior
to its sale or delivery to the ultimate purchaser or while it is in use, or
(2) the use of the vehicle after such device or element of design has
been removed or rendered inoperative by any person.
Among those acts which the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency may
presume to constitute tampering are the acts listed below:
•Removal of hood blanket, fender apron absorbers, fender apron
barriers, underbody noise shields or acoustically absorptive material.
•Tampering or rendering inoperative the engine speed governor, so as
to allow engine speed to exceed manufacturer’s specifications.
The complexity of the diesel engine makes it so the owner is discouraged
from attempting to perform maintenance other than the services
described in this supplement.
If you experience difficult starting, rough idling, excessive exhaust
smoke, a decrease in engine performance or excess fuel consumption,
perform the following checks:
•a plugged air inlet system or engine air filter element.
•water in the fuel filter/water separator.
•a clogged fuel filter.
•contaminated fuel.
•air in the fuel system, due to loose connections.
•an open or pinched sensor hose.
•low engine oil level.
•wrong fuel or oil viscosity for climactic conditions.
If these checks do not help you correct the engine performance problem
you are experiencing, consult an authorized dealer.
FUELING
Do not use starting fluid such as ether or gasoline in the diesel
air intake system. Such fluids can cause immediate explosive
damage to the engine and possible personal injury.
