in the United States) because it may cause these problems to become

more pronounced. If the problems persist, see your dealer or a qualified

service technician.

FFV engine (if equipped)

Your FFV will operate well on ordinary “Regular” unleaded gasoline, but

only the highest quality fuel ethanol will provide the same level of

protection and performance. To identify if your vehicle is an FFV, check

your VIN or the label on the inside of your fuel filler door. When

checking the VIN, look for the engine type identifier (8th character). If

your vehicle is an FFV, then the character will be labeled as a “2”.

If you operate your vehicle 50% or more of the time on ethanol, you

should follow a different maintenance schedule. See the Scheduled

Maintenance Guide for more information.

If you are experiencing a rough or rolling idle after start-up with the

outside temperature above 27° C (80° F), the idle should improve within

10 to 30 seconds. If the problems persist below this temperature, see

your dealer or a qualified service technician.

Cleaner air

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

improve air quality.

Running out of fuel

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

affect 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.

• The

indicator may come on. For more information on the

Service engine soon indicator, refer to the Instrument Cluster

chapter.

Fuel Filter

For fuel filter replacement, see your dealer or a qualified service

technician. Refer to the scheduled maintenance guide for the appropriate

intervals for changing the fuel filter.

Replace the fuel filter with an authorized Motorcraft part. The

customer warranty may be void for any damage to the fuel system

if an authorized Motorcraft fuel filter is not used.
