Fuel and Refueling Care should be taken whenever diesel fuel is stored. Use only clean, approved containers which will prevent the entry of dirt or water. Diesel fuel must not be stored in a galvanized container. The fuel will dissolve the zinc in a galvanized container. The zinc will then remain in the solution until it is run through the engine where it will be deposited in the fuel injectors causing expensive-to-repair damage. Diesel fuel dispensing nozzle fill rate This truck is equipped with a fuel fill pipe which is able to accept fuel up to 20 gallons per minute from a 11⁄8 fuel dispensing nozzle. Pumping fuel at greater flow rates may result in premature nozzle shut-off or spitback. Fuel filler cap WARNING: The fuel system may be under pressure. If the fuel filler cap is venting vapor or if you hear a hissing sound, wait until it stops before completely removing the fuel filler cap. Otherwise, fuel may spray out and injure you or others. WARNING: If you do not use the proper fuel filler cap, excessive pressure or vacuum in the fuel tank may damage the fuel system or cause the fuel cap to disengage in a collision, which may result in possible personal injury. Note: If you must replace the fuel filler cap, replace it with a fuel filler cap that is designed for your vehicle. The vehicle warranty may be void for any damage to the fuel tank or fuel system if the correct genuine Ford or Motorcraft® fuel filler cap is not used. Your fuel tank filler cap has an indexed design with a 1/4 turn on/off feature. When fueling your vehicle: 1. Turn the engine off. 2. Carefully turn the filler cap counterclockwise until it spins off. 3. Pull to remove the cap from the fuel filler pipe. 4. To install the cap, align the tabs on the cap with the notches on the filler pipe. 5. Turn the filler cap clockwise 1/4 of a turn until it clicks at least once. 18 2013 Diesel (67l) Supplement, 1st Printing USA (fus)
