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.

Refilling with a portable fuel container

With the Easy Fuel™ “no cap” fuel system, use the following directions

when filling from a portable fuel container:

WARNING: Do not insert the nozzle of portable fuel containers

or aftermarket funnels into the Easy Fuel™ system. This could

damage the fuel system and its seal, and may cause fuel to run onto

the ground instead of filling the tank, which could result in serious

personal injury.

WARNING: Do not try to pry open or push open the Easy

Fuel™ system with foreign objects. This could damage the fuel

system and its seal and cause injury to you or others.

When filling the vehicle’s fuel tank from a portable fuel container, use the

funnel included with the vehicle.
