Driving tips DUAL FUEL TANK SELECTOR CONTROL (IF EQUIPPED) If your vehicle is equipped dual fuel tanks, you will have a selector control, located to the right of the steering wheel, which allows you to draw fuel from either tank. Your fuel gauge will display the amount of fuel in the currently selected tank. Fuel level indication is delayed for several minutes when the tank selector switch is actuated. Fuel level indication can be obtained immediately by turning off and restarting the engine. MANUAL TRANSMISSION SHIFT SPEEDS Do not overspeed the engine when going downhill or steep grades. If equipped, use the tachometer and do not allow engine speed to exceed the redline area. Operating the engine beyond the recommended speeds can cause severe engine damage. If your vehicle is an F-Series equipped with a manual transmission, your vehicle has an electronic operating strategy which protects the engine system when the engine is operating with high coolant temperatures; fueling to the engine will be modified to prevent damage to the engine. Some power loss may be experienced if the vehicle is overloaded. 12
