Fuel and Refueling Biodiesel WARNINGS Do not use home heating oil, agricultural fuel, raw fats and oils, waste cooking greases, biodiesel fuels greater than 20% or any diesel fuel not intended for highway use. Damage to the fuel injection system, engine and exhaust catalyst can occur if an improper fuel is used. Do not add gasoline, gasohol or alcohol to diesel fuel. This practice creates a serious fire hazard and engine performance problems. Do not mix diesel fuel with gasoline, gasohol or alcohol. This could cause an explosion resulting in personal injury. Do not add gasoline, gasohol or alcohol to diesel fuel. This practice creates a serious fire hazard resulting in personal injury and engine performance problems. : Do not use home heating oil or any diesel fuel not intended for highway use. Damage to the fuel injection system, engine, exhaust catalyst and diesel particulate filter can occur if an improper fuel is used. Red dye is used to identify fuels intended for agricultural and non-highway use. You may operate your vehicle on diesel fuels containing up to 20% biodiesel, also known as B20. Biodiesel fuel is a chemically converted product from renewable fuel sources, such as vegetable oils, animal fats and waste cooking greases. To help achieve acceptable engine performance and durability when using biodiesel in your vehicle: • Confirm the biodiesel content of the fuel to be B20 (20% biodiesel) or less • Only use biodiesel fuel of good quality that complies with industry standards • Follow the recommended service maintenance intervals. See General Maintenance Information (page 59). • Do not store biodiesel fuel in the fuel tank for more than 1 month • Consider changing brands or reducing biodiesel content if you have cold temperature fuel gelling issues or a frequent LOW FUEL PRESSURE message appearing • Do NOT use raw oils, fats or waste cooking greases Use of biodiesel in concentrations greater than 20% may cause damage to your vehicle, including engine and/or exhaust after-treatment hardware (exhaust catalyst and particulate filter) failures. Concentrations greater than 20% can also cause fuel filter restrictions that may result in a lack of power or damage to fuel system components, including fuel pump and fuel injector failures. SAE 5W-40 or SAE 15W-40 oil is recommended for fuels with greater than 5% biodiesel (B5). Refer to the Special operating conditions section under the Schedule Maintenance chapter for more information about oil change intervals and other maintenance when operating on biodiesel. 16 Super Duty (TFA) , enUSA

Biodiesel
WARNINGS
Do not use home heating oil,
agricultural fuel, raw fats and oils,
waste cooking greases, biodiesel
fuels greater than 20% or any diesel fuel
not intended for highway use. Damage to
the fuel injection system, engine and
exhaust catalyst can occur if an improper
fuel is used. Do not add gasoline, gasohol
or alcohol to diesel fuel. This practice
creates a serious fire hazard and engine
performance problems.
Do not mix diesel fuel with gasoline,
gasohol or alcohol. This could cause
an explosion resulting in personal
injury.
Do not add gasoline, gasohol or
alcohol to diesel fuel. This practice
creates a serious fire hazard resulting
in personal injury and engine performance
problems.
: Do not use home heating oil or any

use. Damage to the fuel injection
system, engine, exhaust catalyst and diesel
particulate filter can occur if an improper

You may operate your vehicle on diesel
fuels containing up to 20% biodiesel, also
known as B20.
Biodiesel fuel is a chemically converted
product from renewable fuel sources, such
as vegetable oils, animal fats and waste
cooking greases.
To help achieve acceptable engine
performance and durability when using
biodiesel in your vehicle:
Confirm the biodiesel content of the
fuel to be B20 (20% biodiesel) or less
Only use biodiesel fuel of good quality
that complies with industry standards
Follow the recommended service
maintenance intervals. See
General
Maintenance Information
(page 59).
Do not store biodiesel fuel in the fuel
tank for more than 1 month
Consider changing brands or reducing
biodiesel content if you have cold
temperature fuel gelling issues or a
frequent LOW FUEL PRESSURE
message appearing
Do NOT use raw oils, fats or waste
cooking greases
Use of biodiesel in concentrations greater
than 20% may cause damage to your
vehicle, including engine and/or exhaust
after-treatment hardware (exhaust
catalyst and particulate filter) failures.
Concentrations greater than 20% can also
cause fuel filter restrictions that may result
in a lack of power or damage to fuel
system components, including fuel pump
and fuel injector failures.
SAE 5W-40 or SAE 15W-40 oil is
recommended for fuels with greater than
5% biodiesel (B5). Refer to the Special
operating conditions section under the
Schedule Maintenance chapter for more
information about oil change intervals and
other maintenance when operating on
biodiesel.
