ESSENTIAL INFORMATION ESSENTIAL INFORMATION
Fuel Tank Capacity – Regular-cab vehicles with a short wheel base have a 16.5-gallon tank, while
E regular-cab vehicles with a long wheel base have a 20-gallon tank. The fuel tank of SuperCab
vehicles can accommodate 19.5 gallons of gasoline. All Rangers are designed to use "Regular"
unleaded gasoline with pump (R+M)/2 octane rating of 87 for optimum performance. Flex fuel 3.0L
engines are capable of using up to an 85% ethanol blend in any combination with "Regular"
F unleaded gasoline. The use of gasoline with lower octane ratings may degrade performance.
Tire Pressure – Your tire pressure is properly set at the dealership according to the recommended
specifications found on the Certification Label located on the front door latch pillar on the driver's side.
G Proper tire pressure is very important for a smooth and safe ride. Please check your tire
pressure during routine maintenance and seasonal changes.
H
Fuses – If electrical components in the vehicle are not working, a fuse may have blown.
For more information about changing a fuse, please consult your Owner's Guide.
Fuel Pump Shut-Off Switch – After a collision, if the engine cranks but does not start, the fuel pump
shut-off switch may have to be reset. The switch is located in the passenger's foot well, by the
kick panel. For complete details on resetting your fuel pump shut-off switch, please consult your
Owner's Guide.
Changing the Tires – If you get a flat tire while driving, do not apply the brake heavily. Instead,
gradually decrease your speed. Hold the steering wheel firmly and slowly move to a safe place
on the side of the road. Your vehicle is equipped with a spare tire. Some spare tires are for limited
service use only. Limited service spare tires are labeled as such.
