Choosing The Right Fuel - Ford F-750 Owner's Manual

If you must replace the fuel filler cap, replace it with a genuine
Ford or Motorcraft part. The customer warranty may be void for
any damage to the fuel tank or fuel system if a genuine Ford or
Motorcraft fuel filler cap is not used.
If you do not use the proper fuel filler cap, excessive pressure or
vacuum in the fuel tank may damage the fuel system or cause
the fuel cap to disengage in a collision, which may result in possible
personal injury.

Choosing the right fuel

The engine is designed to use low sulfur number 1D or 2D diesel fuel
only. At temperatures below –20°F (–7°C), number 1D or winter blend
number 2D fuel is recommended. (See Cold weather operation in the
Driving section.) Diesel fuel containing no more than 5% of biodiesel
may be used. Biodiesel fuel is a product derived from renewable fuel
sources such as vegetable oil, animal fat and cooking oil.
Do not use home heating oil or any diesel fuel not intended for
highway use. Red dye is used to identify fuels intended for
agricultural and non-highway use. Damage to the fuel injection
system, engine and exhaust catalyst can occur if an improper fuel
is used. Do not add gasoline, gasohol or alcohol to diesel fuel.
This practice creates a serious fire hazard and engine
performance problems.
Use low sulfur (less than 0.05% by weight) fuel as required by the EPA
for emission compliance.
Do not mix diesel fuel with gasoline, gasohol or alcohol. This
could cause an explosion resulting in personal injury.
Do not use starting fluid such as ether or gasoline. Such fluids
can cause immediate explosive damage to the engine and
possible personal injury.
