Filling The Fuel Tank - Ford Thunderbird Owner's Manual

Put the chains on tightly with the ends held
down securely. Verify that no chain touches
any wiring, brake lines, or fuel lines. Follow
the chain manufacturer's instructions.
Drive slowly. If you can hear the chains rub
or bang against your vehicle, stop the vehicle
and tighten the chains. If you continue to
hear the chains rub or bang against your
vehicle, remove the chains to prevent damage
to your vehicle.
Avoid fully loading your vehicle if possible.
Remove tire chains at the first opportunity
after using them on snow and ice. Do not use
the chains on dry roads.

Filling the Fuel Tank

The fuel door is outside the car on the passenger
side near the back. To fill the fuel tank:
1. After opening the fuel filler door, remove
the cap carefully and slowly by turning it
counterclockwise 1/2 to 3/4 turn.
The fuel system may be under pressure. If
the fuel cap is venting vapor or if you
hear a hissing sound, wait until it stops
before completely removing the cap.
2. Put the nozzle all the way inside the fuel
filler pipe before pumping the fuel.
NOTE: If you spill any fuel on the body of
your vehicle, clean it off immediately.
The fuel may dull or soften the paint
if you do not wash it off.
