Lubrication system
Extended oil change intervals can negatively affect engine performance,
fuel economy and engine life. Refer to the engine oil specification chart
located underEngine oil specificationsin theMaintenance and
Specificationschapter of this supplement.
On E-Series vehicles (6.0L engine),it is important to change the
engine oil at the recommended service intervals because oil viscosity is
important in maintaining the oil pressure required to actuate the fuel
injectors.
On F-Super Duty vehicles (6.4L engine),it is important to change
the engine oil at the recommended service intervals to maintain oil
viscosity with the addition of the diesel particulate filter (DPF).
Fast start glow plug system
The glow plug system consists of:
•eight glow plugs
•the glow plug control module (GPCM)
•engine oil temperature (EOT) sensor
•barometric pressure (BARO) sensor
The glow plug system is
electronically controlled by the
PCM. The GPCM energizes the glow
plugs immediately after the ignition
is placed in the ON position, then determines how long the glow plugs
will be on according to the EOT and BARO sensors. The required time
for the glow plugs to be energized decreases as the engine oil
temperature and barometric pressure increase.
Engine cooling system
The engine cooling system contains an engine oil cooler and an Exhaust
Gas Recirculation (EGR) cooler. The oil cooler’s function is to regulate
engine oil temperature. The EGR cooler function is to cool exhaust gases
before they are circulated back through the engine to reduce emissions.
Vehicles with diesel engines typically are used to carry heavy loads and
accumulate mileage rapidly. These two factors may cause the additives in
the coolant to “wear out” in a shorter time. Refer to the Special
Operating Conditions section for more information about coolant
additives and coolant change intervals. Operating the engine with
insufficient coolant and/or coolant additive can cause severe engine
damage.

Fuel and turbocharger cooling system (F-Super Duty only)
The fuel and turbocharger cooling system contains a cooler which is
mounted on the turbo interstage U-tube on the left side of the engine.
The cooler’s function is to regulate engine fuel temperature and cool the
electronics that support the turbocharger. You may hear the auxiliary
coolant pump running up to 10 minutes after the ignition is turned off in
hot weather or if you are towing heavy loads. This is to control the
temperature of the turbocharger.
Engine governed speed
The engine governor is controlled by the PCM. The PCM controls fuel
input to limit maximum engine speed. It will not, however, prevent
engine overspeeding resulting from downshifting at high vehicle speed or
by descending steep grades at too high a vehicle speed for the selected
transmission gear.
If your vehicle is equipped with a manual transmission,refer to
Manual transmission shift speedsin theDrivingchapter of your
Owner’s Guidefor maximum vehicle shift speeds in various gears. Do
not exceed 4,000 rpm. Maximum engine governed speed is 3,700 rpm.
Excessive rpm can only be achieved by manually downshifting at too
high of a vehicle speed.
Operating the engine beyond the governed speed can cause
severe engine damage.
Speed control (F-Super Duty)
If vehicle speed goes outside a predetermined range from the set speed,
the RES (Resume) function will not reset vehicle speed. Vehicle speed
will need to be reset with the SET +/- button after reaching desired
speed using accelerator pedal.

•The timer can be reset by changing the position of the accelerator
pedal, brake pedal or the park brake within the final 30 seconds.
•When the timer reaches zero, the engine shuts down and the message
center will displayENGINE TURNED OFF.
•One minute after the engine has shut down, the electrical system will
simulate key off, even though the ignition is still in the on position,
initiating normal accessory delay period.
•The ignition must be moved to the off position to reset the system
before restarting the vehicle.
Note:The engine idle shutdown idle timer will not start if:
•The engine is operating in power take-off (PTO) mode.
•The engine coolant temperature is below 60°F (16°C).
•The exhaust emission control device (DPF) is regenerating.
STOPPING THE ENGINE
Turn the ignition to the OFF position.
On E-Series vehicles,
to prolong engine life (after extended high speed
or maximum GVW operation), it is recommended that a hot engine be idled
for 7–10 minutes which will allow the turbocharged engine to cool down.
On F-Super Duty vehicles,to prolong engine life (especially after
extended high speed, high ambient temperature, or high GVW/GCW
operation), it is recommended that a hot engine be idled for 3-5 minutes
which will allow 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 you have problems operating on biodiesel during cold
weather, you may need to use a diesel fuel with lower biodiesel content,
try another brand, or discontinue the use of biodiesel.

Your vehicle is also equipped with a bypass relief valve, located in the
fuel tank pick-up boot, which provides fuel flow to the engine if the fuel
pickup should become plugged by ice or wax. To allow the bypass valve
to function and avoid engine fuel starvation, it is recommended that,
during cold weather operation 32°F (0°C) or below, the fuel level in your
tank should not be allowed to drop below
1 4full. This will help prevent
air from entering the fuel system and stalling the engine.
In cold weather below 32°F (0°C), the engine will slowly increase to a
higher idle speed if left idling in P (Park). As the engine warms-up, the
engine sound level will decrease due to the activation of PCM-controlled
sound reduction features.
If your vehicle is operated in a heavy snow storm or blowing snow
conditions, the engine air induction may become partially clogged with
snow and/or ice. If this occurs, the engine may experience a significant
reduction in power output. At the earliest opportunity, clear all the snow
and/or ice away from inside the air filter assembly. Take the top off the
assembly, leaving the air filter in, and remove any snow or ice.
In order to operate the engine in temperatures of 32°F (0°C) or lower,
read the following instructions:
•Make sure that the batteries are of sufficient size and are fully
charged. Check other electrical components to make sure they are in
optimum condition.
•Use Motorcraft Premium Gold Engine Coolant solution at the
concentration recommended to protect the engine against damage
from freezing.
•Try to keep the fuel tank full as much as possible at the end of
operation to prevent condensation in the fuel system.
•Make sure you use proper cold weather engine oil and that it is at its
proper level. Also, if necessary, make sure to follow the engine oil and
filter change schedule found under theSpecial operating conditions
section in thescheduled maintenance guideinformation.
•At temperatures of -10°F (-23°C) or below, it is recommended that
you use an engine block heater to improve cold engine starting.
•If operating in arctic temperatures of -20°F (-29°C) or lower, consult
your truck dealer for information about special cold weather
equipment and precautions.
Note:Idling in cold weather will not heat the engine to its normal
operating temperature. Long periods of idling in cold weather can cause
a buildup of heavy deposits of carbon and rust on valve stems causing
them to stick, which in turn, can cause valve train damage.

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 into the fuel filter housing.
Refer toMotorcraft Part Numberslater in this chapter for the fuel filter
part number.
2. Tighten cap onto fuel filter housing slowly, allowing fuel to soak into
the fuel filter element. Tighten cap until it contacts the housing.
Turn the ignition key to on for 30 seconds, then turn it to off. Do this a
total of six times in a row to purge any trapped air from the fuel system.
Replace the filter bowl O-ring with new seal (included in filter kit) every
time you service the filter.
After filter service, a no start or rough running engine may indicate that
air is entering the system through the filter bowl seal or drain. Make sure
the drain lever is pointing rearward and stowed against the HFCM case.
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

Check the battery connections at the battery posts, cable connection to
the engine grounding point and at the starter connection.
If a discharged battery is suspected, have it checked and corrected.
WARNING:Battery posts, terminals and related accessories
contain lead and lead compounds.Wash hands after handling.
•For vehicles with manual transmissions,the clutch pedalmustbe
fully depressed in order for the starter to operate.
•For vehicles with automatic transmissions,the gearshift lever
must be in P (Park) or N (Neutral) in order for the starter to operate.
•Try operating the starter switch several times. Should the switch be
corroded, this operation may clean the contacts or make the switch
temporarily operable until you can reach the dealer.
•If all electrical connections are tight and you need assistance to start,
refer toJump startingin theRoadside Emergencieschapter of your
Owner’s Guide(F-Super Duty) or refer to theJump startingsection
in theRoadside Emergencieschapter of this supplement (E-Series).
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 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 OFF and
then back to 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.
