It should not be necessary to add any aftermarket products to your fuel

tank if you continue to use high quality fuel of the recommended octane

rating. Aftermarket products could cause damage to the fuel system.

Repairs to correct the effects of using an aftermarket product in your

fuel may not be covered by your warranty.

Many of the world’s automakers approved the World-wide Fuel Charter

that recommends gasoline specifications to provide improved

performance and emission control system protection for your vehicle.

Gasolines that meet the World-wide Fuel Charter should be used when

available. Ask your fuel supplier about gasolines that meet the

World-wide Fuel Charter.

Cleaner air

Ford endorses the use of reformulated “cleaner-burning” gasolines to

improve air quality.

Running out of fuel

Avoid running out of fuel because this situation may have an adverse

affect on powertrain components.

If you have run out of fuel:

• You may need to cycle the ignition from OFF to ON several times after

refueling, to allow the fuel system to pump the fuel from the tank to

the engine.

• Your “Check Engine” indicator may come on. For more information on

the “Check Engine” indicator, refer to the Instrument Cluster

chapter.

Fuel Filter

For fuel filter replacement, see your dealer or a qualified service

technician. Refer to the scheduled maintenance guide for the appropriate

intervals for changing the fuel filter.

Replace the fuel filter with an authorized Motorcraft part. The

customer warranty may be void for any damage to the fuel system

if an authorized Motorcraft fuel filter is not used.
