California Proposition 65 Warning
WARNING:Engine exhaust, some of its constituents, and
certain vehicle components contain or emit chemicals known to
the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other
reproductive harm. Certain fluids contained in vehicles and certain
products of components contain or emit chemicals known to the State
of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive
harm.
Your new diesel engine will feel, drive and function somewhat differently
than a gasoline engine. Therefore it is very important that you read and
thoroughly familiarize yourself and others operating the vehicle with this
guide.
This guide will acquaint you with the 6.0L Power Stroke diesel engine. It
provides recommendations on engine care and operating procedures. For
complete vehicle information, also refer to theOwner’s Guideincluded
with the vehicle. It also describes equipment and gives specifications for
equipment that was in effect when this guide was approved for printing,
and should be considered a permanent part of the vehicle.
Some aftermarket products may cause severe engine and/or
transmission damage; refer to theWhat is not coveredsection in
The new vehicle limited warranty for your vehiclechapter of your
vehicle’sWarranty Guidefor more information. Your vehicle’s
Powertrain Control Systems can detect and store information
about vehicle modifications that increase horsepower and torque
output. This information cannot be erased and will stay in the
system’s memory even if the modification is removed. The
Information can be retrieved by Ford Motor Company, Ford of
Canada, and service and repair facilities when servicing your
vehicle. This information may be used to determine if repairs will
be covered by warranty.
Ford may discontinue models or change specifications without any notice
and without incurring obligations.
Important notice
Ford vehicles are suitable for producing ambulances only if equipped
with the Ford ambulance preparation package. In addition, Ford urges
ambulance manufacturers to follow the recommendation of theFord
Incomplete Vehicle Manual, Ford Truck Body Builder’s Layout Book
(and pertinent supplements) and theQualified Vehicle Modifiers

Introduction

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.

Engine air filter:
The engine air filter warning light illuminates when the air filter
restriction gauge reaches the CHANGE FILTER mark. The following
message in your message center (depending on how the vehicle is
equipped) will appear:
Type A
Type B
The condition should be verified by inspecting the underhood air filter
restriction gauge; the warning light is only a secondary indicator. Always
use the underhood air filter restriction gauge to determine when the air
filter element needs to be changed.
The vehicle may be driven with the engine air filter warning light
illuminated/or when the underhood air filter restriction gauge has moved
to the CHANGE FILTER mark for up to 250 miles (400 km) without
damaging the engine or related components. However, the air filter
element must be replaced at the earliest opportunity. Refer toAir filter
restriction gauge (if equipped)in this chapter for more information.

GAUGES
Air filter restriction (if
equipped):
The restriction gauge, located on
the upper housing of the air cleaner
assembly, measures the vacuum
inside the air cleaner. The more the
air cleaner is restricted (dirty,
clogged), the higher the vacuum
reading
Check the air filter restriction gauge
whenever the hood is raised to perform general engine maintenance at
least every 7,500 miles (12,000 km). If the vehicle is operated in
extremely dusty conditions, check the gauge at least every 500 miles
(800 km), or two weeks, whichever comes first.
Change the air filter when the gauge reads 25 inches (635 mm). Engine
performance and fuel economy are adversely affected when the
maximum restriction is reached.
Blowing-out the air filter element with compressed air is not
recommended as the compressed air may damage the filter paper.
Note:It is not possible to determine the level of filter clogging by visual
appearance alone. A filter which appears to be dirty may actually have
several thousand miles (kilometers) of life remaining.
Always use the underhood air filter restriction gauge to
determine when the air filter element needs to be changed. The
warning light on the instrument cluster should not be used
exclusively for determining when the air filter element needs
changing.

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.
