Fuel and Refueling Emission Control System(s) Laws WARNING Do not remove or alter the original equipment floor covering or insulation between it and the metal floor of the vehicle. The floor covering and insulation protect occupants of the vehicle from the engine and exhaust system heat and noise. On vehicles with no original equipment floor covering insulation, do not carry passengers in a manner that permits prolonged skin contact with the metal floor. Provide adequate insulation. Failure to follow these instructions may result in fire or personal injury. In the U.S. federal law and certain state laws prohibit removing or rendering inoperative emission control system(s). Similar federal or provincial laws may apply in Canada. Ford recommends against any vehicle modification without determining applicable law. Tampering with emissions control systems (including related sensors and the Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) injection system) can result in reduced engine power and the illumination of the service engine soon light. Tampering with a Noise Control System Federal law prohibits the following acts or the causing thereof: (1) The removal or rendering inoperative by any person other than for purposes of maintenance, repair or replacement of any device or element of design incorporated into any new vehicle for the purpose of noise control prior to its sale or delivery to the ultimate purchaser or while it is in use, or (2) the use of the vehicle after such device or element of design has been removed or rendered inoperative by any person. Among those acts, which the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency may presume to constitute tampering are the acts listed below: • Removal of hood blanket, fender apron absorbers, fender apron barriers, underbody noise shields or acoustically absorptive material. Tampering or rendering inoperative the engine speed governor, to allow engine speed to exceed manufacturer 's specifications. • The complexity of the diesel engine makes it so the owner is discouraged from attempting to perform maintenance other than the services described in this supplement. If you experience difficult starting the engine, rough idling, excessive exhaust smoke, a decrease in engine performance or excess fuel consumption, perform the following checks A plugged or disconnected air inlet system or engine air filter element Water in the fuel filter and water separator A clogged fuel filter Contaminated fuel Air in the fuel system, due to loose connections An open or pinched sensor hose Check engine oil level Wrong fuel or oil viscosity for climactic conditions If these checks do not help you correct the engine performance problem you are experiencing, consult an authorized dealer. 35 Super Duty (TFA) , enUSA

Emission Control System(s) Laws
WARNING
Do not remove or alter the original
equipment floor covering or
insulation between it and the metal
floor of the vehicle. The floor covering and
insulation protect occupants of the vehicle
from the engine and exhaust system heat
and noise. On vehicles with no original
equipment floor covering insulation, do not
carry passengers in a manner that permits
prolonged skin contact with the metal
floor. Provide adequate insulation. Failure
to follow these instructions may result in
fire or personal injury.
In the U.S. federal law and certain state
laws prohibit removing or rendering
inoperative emission control system(s).
Similar federal or provincial laws may
apply in Canada. Ford recommends
against any vehicle modification without
determining applicable law.
Tampering with emissions
control systems (including
related sensors and the Diesel
Exhaust Fluid (DEF) injection system) can
result in reduced engine power and the
illumination of the service engine soon
light.
Tampering with a Noise Control
System
Federal law prohibits the following acts or
the causing thereof: (1) The removal or
rendering inoperative by any person other
than for purposes of maintenance, repair
or replacement of any device or element
of design incorporated into any new vehicle
for the purpose of noise control prior to its
sale or delivery to the ultimate purchaser
or while it is in use, or (2) the use of the
vehicle after such device or element of
design has been removed or rendered
inoperative by any person.
Among those acts, which the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency may
presume to constitute tampering are the
acts listed below:
Removal of hood blanket, fender apron
absorbers, fender apron barriers,
underbody noise shields or acoustically
absorptive material.
Tampering or rendering inoperative the
engine speed governor, to allow engine
speed to exceed manufacturer’s
specifications.
The complexity of the diesel engine makes
it so the owner is discouraged from
attempting to perform maintenance other
than the services described in this
supplement.
If you experience difficult starting the
engine, rough idling, excessive exhaust
smoke, a decrease in engine performance
or excess fuel consumption, perform the
following checks:
A plugged or disconnected air inlet
system or engine air filter element
Water in the fuel filter and water
separator
A clogged fuel filter
Contaminated fuel
Air in the fuel system, due to loose
connections
An open or pinched sensor hose
Check engine oil level
Wrong fuel or oil viscosity for climactic
conditions
If these checks do not help you correct the
engine performance problem you are
experiencing, consult an authorized dealer.
