• 3.0L Duratec engine

• 3.4L SHO engine

• Never wash or rinse the engine while it is

running; water in the running engine may cause

internal damage.

Cleaning the engine

Cover the underhood electrical connections and

terminals of your vehicle when cleaning the engine

compartment. Avoid spraying or splashing cleaning

solvents or detergent solutions on the terminals and

connections. After the cleaning is completed and

with the engine not running, remove the protective

cleaning coverings. Exposing electrical connections

and terminals to cleaning solvents and detergent

solutions over a period of time can corrode them

and result in electrical system damage and

malfunctions.

Cleaning plastic exterior parts

Use vinyl cleaner for routine cleaning. Clean with a

tar remover if necessary. Do not clean plastic parts

with thinners, solvents or petroleum-based cleaners.
