Maintenance and Specifications 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. On restarting, cranking time will take a few seconds longer than normal. • Normally, adding 1 gallon (3.8L) of fuel is enough to restart the engine. If the vehicle is out of fuel and on a steep grade, more than 1 gallon (3.8L) may be required. • The service engine soon indicator may come on. For more information on the service engine soon indicator, refer to Warning lights and chimes in the Instrument Cluster chapter. Refilling with a portable fuel container With the Easy Fuel௡ "no cap" fuel system, use the following directions when filling from a portable fuel container: WARNING: Do not insert the nozzle of portable fuel containers or aftermarket funnels into the Easy Fuel௡ system. This could damage the fuel system and its seal, and may cause fuel to run onto the ground instead of filling the tank, which could result in serious personal injury. WARNING: Do not try to pry open or push open the Easy Fuel௡ system with foreign objects. This could damage the fuel system and its seal and cause injury to you or others. When filling the vehicle's fuel tank from a portable fuel container, use the funnel included with the vehicle. 1. Locate the white plastic funnel. It is included with the tire changing tools. (For vehicles equipped with the temporary mobility kit, the funnel is located in the spare tire well in the trunk). 2. Slowly insert the funnel into the Easy Fuel௡ system. 300 2012 05+ Mustang (197) Owners Guide, 3rd Printing USA (fus)
