Page 101: Engine Block Heater
Starting and Stopping the Engine The inlet holes in the side of the assembly are functional. These holes allow outside air to enter into the outlet assembly. Keep the holes clear of mud and other foreign material to maintain proper functionality of the system.
Page 102 Starting and Stopping the Engine Note: The heater is most effective when outdoor temperatures are below 0°F (-18°C). The heater acts as a starting aid by warming the engine coolant. This allows the climate control system to respond quickly. The equipment includes a heater element (installed in the engine block) and a wire harness.
Page 103 Starting and Stopping the Engine Using the Engine Block Heater Make sure the receptacle terminals are clean and dry before use. To clean them, use a dry cloth. The heater uses 0.4 to 1.0 kilowatt-hours of energy per hour of use. The system does not have a thermostat.
Page 104: Fuel And Refueling
Fuel and Refueling SAFETY PRECAUTIONS WARNING: Do not overfill the fuel tank. The pressure in an overfilled tank may cause leakage and lead to fuel spray and fire. WARNING: The fuel system may be under pressure. If you hear a hissing sound near the fuel filler inlet, do not refuel until the sound stops.
Page 105: Fuel Quality
Fuel and Refueling • Avoid getting fuel liquid in your eyes. If fuel is splashed in the eyes, remove contact lenses (if worn), flush with water for 15 minutes and seek medical attention. Failure to seek proper medical attention could lead to permanent injury.
Page 106 Fuel and Refueling Diesel Engine WARNING: Using low sulfur (16-500 ppm) or high sulfur (greater than 500 ppm) diesel fuel in a diesel engine designed to use only Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel fuel causes certain emission components to malfunction which may also cause the Service Engine Soon light to illuminate indicating an emissions-related concern.
Page 107: Running Out Of Fuel
Fuel and Refueling Biodiesel fuel is a product converted from renewable fuel sources, including vegetable oil, animal fat and cooking oil. You should not use raw, refined, and recycled vegetable/plant oils, greases, and animal fats. Biodiesel fuel blends must meet requirements of ASTM D7467 standard specification.
Page 108: Refueling
Fuel and Refueling If you have run out of fuel: • If your vehicle is equipped with dual fuel tanks, adding four–five gallons (15–19 liters) of fuel is enough to restart the engine. If your vehicle is out of fuel and on a steep grade, more than four–five gallons (15–19 liters) may be required.
Page 109 Note: If you must replace the fuel filler cap, replace it with a fuel filler cap designed for your vehicle. The customer warranty may be void for any damage to the fuel tank or fuel system if the correct genuine Ford, Motorcraft or other certified fuel filler cap is not used.
Page 110: Fuel Consumption
Fuel and Refueling FUEL CONSUMPTION Filling the Tank The advertised capacity is the indicated capacity and the empty reserve combined. Indicated capacity is the difference in the amount of fuel in a full tank and a tank when the fuel gauge indicates empty. Empty reserve is the amount of fuel in the tank after the fuel gauge indicates empty.

Maintenance GENERAL INFORMATION WARNING: Making modifications to various parts, components and systems of the vehicle, such as brake and steering systems, can adversely affect the quality, reliability and operation of your vehicle and could result in property damage, personal injury or death. Such modifications must be avoided.
Page 199 Maintenance Quality service parts are available through an authorized dealer. If dealer parts are not used, make sure the replacement parts are of equivalent quality. WARNING: The use of inferior parts can adversely affect the quality and reliability of your vehicle which, in turn, can result in property damage, personal injury or death.
Page 200 Maintenance Climate Control System Have the air conditioning system checked each spring. The refrigerant charge, cleanliness of the condenser-evaporator cores and belt condition are essential to system performance. When the air conditioning system is being used daily, remove the fresh air filter (if equipped) once each season and check for things such as dirt and lint.
Page 201 Maintenance Special applications may warrant a setting based on experience with the type of tire operating loads and conditions. Radial tires are more sensitive to toe-in setting than bias ply tires. Fine tuning school bus alignment to line-haul truck standards does not drastically improve tire tread life.
Page 202 Maintenance WARNING: 1. Always wear a respirator approved by the National Institute of Occupational Studies of Health (NIOSH) or Mine Safety and Appliance (MSA) during all brake service procedures. Wear the respirator from removal of the wheels through assembly. 2. Never use compressed air or dry brushing to clean brake parts or assemblies.
Page 203 Maintenance Inspection and adjustment: Establish a regular schedule for periodic cleaning, lubrication and adjustment inspection based on vehicle use. Exact maintenance intervals are difficult to predetermine due to vehicle applications and operating conditions. If you are uncertain of the proper schedule for your vehicle, contact an authorized dealer.
Page 204 Maintenance Desiccant air dryer: Inspect for moisture in the air system by opening reservoirs, draincocks or valves and checking for presence of water. The presence of small amounts of water due to condensation is normal and is not an indication that the dryer is not functioning properly. Replace or rebuild the desiccant cartridge when you determine that the desiccant is contaminated and does not have adequate water absorption capacity.
Page 205 Maintenance provided by the service manual. Hydraulic brake systems are power-assisted. There is a great reduction in braking capabilities without engine assist. • Proper fluid level. The level should be at the bottom edge of the ring on each reservoir fill port. Do not fill the master cylinder to the top of the reservoir.
Page 206 Maintenance • Checking that the pitman arm (steering arm at steering gear) mounting is tight and locked. Check system for leaks or hose chafing. Repair immediately, if necessary. • Maintaining proper steering gear and power steering pump lubricant levels. • Checking steering column joint bolts and steering linkage, particularly for body-to-chassis clearance.
Page 207 Maintenance Perform a complete inspection of the air induction system annually. In areas where road salt is used, disassemble the joints of each aluminum component and inspect for salt build-up and presence of chlorine that can cause aluminum particles to flake off and enter the engine combustion chambers.

Page 213 Note: For best results, coolant concentration should be tested with a refractometer such as Rotunda tool 300-ROB75240 available from an authorized dealer. Ford does not recommend the use of hydrometers or coolant test strips for measuring coolant concentrations. Note: Automotive fluids are not interchangeable; do not use engine coolant, antifreeze or windshield washer fluid outside of its specified function and vehicle location.
Page 214 Recycled Engine Coolant Ford Motor Company does not recommend the use of recycled engine coolant since a Ford-approved recycling process is not yet available. Dispose of used engine coolant in an appropriate manner. Follow your community’s regulations and standards for recycling and disposing of...
Page 215 Maintenance Severe Climates If you drive in extremely cold climates: • It may be necessary to have an authorized dealer increase the coolant concentration above 50%. • A coolant concentration of 60% provides improved freeze point protection. Engine coolant concentrations above 60% decrease the overheat protection characteristics of the engine coolant and may cause engine damage.
Page 216: Automatic Transmission Fluid Check
Maintenance When Fail-Safe Mode Turns On WARNING: Never remove the coolant reservoir cap while the engine is running or hot. Note: Driving your vehicle without repairing the engine problem increases the chance of engine damage. Take your vehicle to an authorized dealer as soon as possible.
Page 217 Maintenance 6. Install the dipstick making sure to seat it fully in the filler tube. 7. Remove the dipstick and inspect the fluid level. The fluid should be in the designated area for normal operating temperature or ambient temperature. If you must add transmission fluid, see your Allison Automatic Transmission Operator’s Manual for the correct fluid type.
Page 218 Maintenance Low Fluid Level Do not drive your vehicle if there is no indication of fluid on the dipstick and the ambient temperature is above 50°F (10°C). Correct Fluid Level Check the fluid at normal operating temperature, 196°F-216°F (91°C-102°C), on a level surface. The fluid reaches normal operating temperature after approximately 20 miles (30 kilometers) of driving.
Page 219 Maintenance If an overfill occurs, excess fluid should be removed by a qualified technician. Note: An overfill condition of transmission fluid may cause shift or engagement concerns or possible damage. Do not use supplemental transmission fluid additives, treatments or cleaning agents.

Page 244: Wheels And Tires
Wheels and Tires TIRES Tire Inflation Information WARNING: Always maintain your tires in good condition. Frequently check and maintain correct inflation pressures as specified by tire manufacturers. Inspect periodically for abnormal wear patterns and repair/replace cut or broken tire casings. Always use experienced, trained personnel with proper equipment and correct procedures to mount or remove tires and wheels.
Page 245 Wheels and Tires WARNING (Continued) • Do not change from aluminum wheels to steel wheels or vice-versa without changing the mounting hardware where required or, in some cases with flange nut mounting systems, changing the hub and stud assembly. Mixing components could cause wheel or fastener failures and result in property damage, personal injury, or death.
Page 246 Wheels and Tires Stay out of the trajectory (1) as indicated in the illustration. WARNING: Do not mount tube type tires on tubeless wheels or tubeless tires on tube type wheels. To do so could result in tire or wheel failure and cause property damage, personal injury or death. Preserving proper inflation pressure is a very important maintenance practice to make sure safe vehicle operation and long life for the tires.
Page 247 Wheels and Tires Checking Tire Pressure Always check inflation pressure when tires are cold. Never bleed air from hot tires to relieve normal pressure build-up. Normal increase in pressure due to service conditions is 10–15 psi (69–103 kPa), which is allowable in truck tires.
Page 248 Wheels and Tires Proper tire inflation, toe-in adjustment, loads, and road speeds are important factors governing tire mileage, steering ease and maneuverability. Tire Loading WARNING: Loading tires beyond their rated capacity decreases tire life requiring more frequent replacement of tires. Overloading creates an unsafe condition that may result in sudden air loss from a tire failure resulting in an accident that could cause property damage, personal injury or death.
Page 249 Wheels and Tires Rotation may not advisable: • Front (Steering) Axle: Remove tires when tread wears down to four–thirty seconds inch (3 millimeters) or less. Retread or rotate worn tires to drive position. We do not recommend using retreaded tires on steering axles. •...
Page 250 Wheels and Tires Irregular Wear: If irregular wear is present, check the axle alignment, tire pressure, wheel balancing, shock and suspension component condition, and wheel bearing end play. This condition not only shortens tire life, but also adversely affects the handling of your vehicle, which is dangerous.
Page 251 Wheels and Tires Oil-lubricated Front Wheel Bearings During normal vehicle duty cycle, the lubricant and air inside the hub/wheel cavity expands and, if not vented, causes pressure build-up that could cause accelerated seal wear. You can use two venting methods to prevent pressure build-up: •...
