Maintenance and Specifications Changing engine oil and filter Change your oil and filter according to the scheduled maintenance information in this supplement. Change more frequently if your vehicle operation includes extended periods of idling or low-speed operation, driving for a long time in cold temperatures or driving short distances. See the following section Engine lubrication for severe service operation for all severe duty restrictions. Use Ford Engine Oil Filter Part No. 3C3Z-6731-AA (FL-2016) or equivalent. These filters protect your engine by filtering harmful, abrasive or sludge particles. The FL-2016 filters particles significantly smaller than most available "will-fit" filters. To replace the filter, 1. Unscrew the oil filter cap and wait a few seconds for the oil to drain through the built-in drain valve. Note: The filter should be changed before reinstalling the oil pan drain plug. 2. Reinstall and tighten the oil filter cap. Do not handle a hot oil filter with bare hands. Continuous contact with USED motor oil has caused cancer in laboratory mice. Protect your skin by washing with soap and water. Engine lubrication for severe service operation The following severe service operating conditions require unique engine maintenance procedures: • towing a trailer over 1,000 miles (1,600 km) • sustained, high speed driving at Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (maximum loaded weight for vehicle operation during hot weather-above 90°F [32°C]). • frequent or extended idling (over 10 minutes per hour of normal driving). • operating in severe dust conditions. • frequent, short trips of 10 miles (16 km) or less during freezing weather 39 2006 Econoline (eco) Supplement USA (fus)
