your ability to safely operate your vehicle.
Avoid breathing vapors while refueling. If fuel
vapors are inhaled in excessive quantities, move
the victim to fresh air and seek medical
attention.
Fuels can also be harmful if absorbed through
the skin. Be careful not to splash fuel on
yourself or your clothing. If fuel is splashed on
the skin, promptly remove contaminated clothing
and wash the skin thoroughly with soap and
water.
Fuels can cause severe eye irritation and possibly
eye damage. If fuel is splashed in the eyes,
remove contact lenses (if worn), flush with large
amounts of water for 15 minutes, and seek
medical attention.
You should be particularly careful if you are
taking the medication "Antabuse" or other forms
of disulfiram for the treatment of alcoholism.
There is a possibility that breathing the vapors
of a gasoline-methanol blend, or skin contact
with such a blend, may cause the same kind of
adverse reaction as drinking an alcoholic
beverage. In sensitive individuals, serious
personal injury or sickness could result. Consult
a physician promptly if you experience an
adverse reaction.
Fuel line service
Fuel injection systems operate with pressurized
fuel. The fuel lines are under pressure even
when the engine is off. This system should be
serviced by an authorized dealer using only
Ford approved parts. Using other materials may
be hazardous or allow hydrocarbon emissions
above the legal levels set by the Federal
Government.
