rating. These products have not been approved for your engine and

could cause damage to the fuel system. Repairs to correct the effects of

using an aftermarket product in your fuel may not be covered by your

warranty.

Many of the world’s automakers approved the World-Wide Fuel Charter

that recommends gasoline specifications to provide improved

performance and emission control system protection for your vehicle.

Gasolines that meet the World-Wide Fuel Charter should be used when

available. Ask your fuel supplier about gasolines that meet the

World-Wide Fuel Charter.

Cleaner air

Ford endorses the use of reformulated “cleaner-burning” gasolines to

improve air quality, per the recommendations in the Choosing the right

fuel section.

Running out of fuel

Avoid running out of fuel because this situation may have an adverse

effect on powertrain components.

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.

ESSENTIALS OF GOOD FUEL ECONOMY

Measuring techniques

Your best source of information about actual fuel economy is you, the

driver. You must gather information as accurately and consistently as

possible. Fuel expense, frequency of fill-ups or fuel gauge readings are

NOT accurate as a measure of fuel economy. We do not recommend

taking fuel economy measurements during the first 1,000 miles

(1,600 km) of driving (engine break-in period). You will get a more

accurate measurement after 2,000 miles–3,000 miles (3,000 km–5,000

km).
