•Low fuel operation: If the message appears when the vehicle is warm
and during low fuel tank level operation, i.e. the tank level is at or
very near empty, refuel the vehicle and operate the vehicle. If the
message reappears after fueling, see below. If the message does not
come back, the low fuel pressure condition was due to low fuel levels
in the fuel tank.
•Normal operation: If the message appears during normal operation
when the vehicle / engine is fully warm, and fuel level is not low, the
fuel filters must be changed regardless of the maintenance schedule
interval.
•If replacement of the fuel filter does not remedy the low fuel pressure
message during normal operation as defined above, take the vehicle to
your authorized dealer.
CHANGING THE ENGINE-MOUNTED AND DFCM FUEL FILTERS
Your vehicle is equipped with two fuel filters; one is mounted on top of
the driver’s side of the engine and the second filter, inside the DFCM, is
mounted on the frame rail under the driver-side floorboard near the
transmission. Both filters should be replaced at the same time. Regular
fuel filter changes are an important part of engine maintenance; failing to
keep with the scheduled maintenance could lead to engine performance
issues and/or fuel injection system damage. Refer to thescheduled
maintenance informationof this supplement for more information.
Refer toMotorcraft part numberslater in this chapter for the fuel filter
replacement part number. This part number includes filters and seals for
both the engine-mounted and frame-mounted filters.
