After installation of the new filter
element, reset the gauge by pressing
the reset button on top of the
gauge.
Note:If the vehicle is operated in a
heavy snow storm, in blowing snow
or the vehicle is equipped with a
snowplow, the engine air filter
element may become partially
clogged with snow and/or ice. If this
occurs, the engine may experience a
significant reduction in power output. The vehicle may be driven under
these conditions for up to 100 miles (160 km) without damage to the
engine or related components.
At the earliest opportunity, clear all snow and ice from the air induction
system and reset the restriction gauge by pressing the button on the end
of the gauge. If the air filter restriction gauge vacuum reads above the
second line after clearing snow and/or ice, then replace the filter. Reset
filter restriction gauge after changing the air filter element.
The air filter warning light on the instrument cluster may be used, in
addition to the underhood restriction gauge, to monitor the condition of
the air filter element. Refer to theEngine air filterwarning light in this
chapter of the supplement.
Engine boost gauge (if equipped):
Indicates the amount of pressure in
the engine. Driving with your
pointer continuously at the high end
of the scale may damage the engine.

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.

If engine cranks but won’t start
Prolonged starter cranking (in excess of 30 seconds) could cause
damage to the starter motor.
•
Check the fuel gauge. You may be out of fuel. If the gauge shows that
there is fuel in the tank, the trouble may be in the electrical system or
the fuel system. If equipped with an auxiliary tank, be sure that the tank
control switch is set for the tank with fuel and not on an empty tank.
•Leaving the ignition key turned to 4 (ON) for over two minutes
without starting may make starting difficult because the glow plugs
will cease activation. Reset the system by turning the ignition key to 3
(OFF) and then back to 4 (ON) again.
If the engine runs hot
The following could cause the engine to overheat:
•Lack of coolant.
•Dirty cooling system.
•Plugged radiator fins, charge air cooler, A/C condenser and/or oil
cooler.
•Driving with frozen coolant.
•Sticking thermostat.
•Overloading or pulling heavy trailers during hot weather.
•Grill or radiator air blockage.
•Slipping or missing drive belt.
•Plugged or very dirty air cleaner element.
If fuses burn out
Burned-out or blown fuses usually indicate an electrical short-circuit,
although a fuse may occasionally burn out from vibration. Insert a second
fuse. If this fuse immediately burns out and you cannot locate the cause,
return your vehicle to your dealer for a circuit check.
Replacement fuses and circuit breakers must always be the same
rating as the original equipment shown. Never replace a fuse or
circuit breaker with one of a higher rating. Higher rated fuses or circuit
breakers could allow circuit overloading in the event of a circuit
malfunction, resulting in severe vehicle damage or personal injury due
to fire.
Refer to theOwner’s Guidefor replacement of fuses.
