2002 FORD F650 fuel

After the engine starts:
²On some engines, theWait to
startlight should illuminate after
the engine starts. Allow the
engine to idle about three
minutes or until the engine
coolant temperature gauge begins
to rise. Maintain idle speed until theWait to startlight cycles off to
indicate the air intake heater has shut off (approximately six
minutes). Operating the engine at higher speeds will reduce the
effectiveness of the air inlet heater.
²Do not increase engine speed
until the oil pressure gauge
indicates normal pressure.
²Ensure engine oil pressure is
indicated on the gauge within 15
seconds after starting.
²Idle the engine for three to five
minutes before operating with a
full load.
²Try to limit engine idle to 10
minutes. Excessive idling reduces fuel economy.
²When starting a cold engine, increase the engine speed (RPM) slowly
to make sure adequate lubrication is available to the bearings.
Restarting after running out of fuel
The fuel system may need to be purged of air, refer toRunning out of
fuelin theMaintenance and specificationschapter.
Cold weather starting
Perform the following to assure efficient starting in cold weather:
²Use the proper grade oil for your climate. Refer to your engine
operator's manual for proper grade oil.
²Test the battery more frequently to assure ample power for starting.
²All electrical connections should be tight and in good condition to
prevent losses through loose or corroded connections.

Continuous operation with low
coolant temperature, below 60ÉC
(140ÉF) or high coolant temperature
100ÉC (212ÉF) can damage the
engine.
Most failures give some kind of early
warning. Look and listen for changes
in performance, sound or engine
appearance that can indicate service
or engine repair is needed. Some
changes to look and/or listen for:
²Engine misfires
²Loss of power
²Sudden changes in engine operating temperature or oil pressure
²Excessive smoke
²Fuel, oil or coolant leaks
²Vibration
²Increased oil or fuel consumption
Excessive full throttle operation below peak torque RPM will shorten
engine life to overhaul and can cause serious engine damage. Operation
of the engine below peak torque RPM can occur during gear shifting due
to difference of gear ratios.
Engine shutdown system (if equipped)
This system is designed to help prevent engine damage that could result
from operating the engine during a prolonged period of low engine oil
pressure, high engine coolant temperature or low coolant level. If any of
these conditions occur, a warning light will illuminate and a chime will
sound warning the operator that the engine will shutdown in 30 seconds.
This is to allow time for the operator to move the vehicle off the road. If
additional time is required, the engine can be restarted and run each
time for approximately 30 seconds.
Do not attempt to use this restarting feature to drive the vehicle, serious
engine damage could result.

Exhaust fumes
Never idle the engine in closed areas. Never sit in a parked or
stopped vehicle for any amount of time with engine running.
If you ever smell exhaust fumes of any kind inside your vehicle,
have your dealer inspect and fix your vehicle immediately. Do
not drive if you smell exhaust fumes. These fumes are harmful and
could kill you.
In order to guard against fumes entering your vehicle, the exhaust
system and body ventilation system should be checked by a qualified
technician:
²Each time the vehicle is raised for service.
²Whenever a change in exhaust system noise is noted.
²Whenever the vehicle has been damaged by impact from another
vehicle, object or road obstruction.
In order to afford proper operation, all air inlet vents should be kept
clear of snow, leaves and other debris.
If you run the engine while stopped (idled) in an unconfined area, open
the windows at least 2.5 cm (one inch) and adjust the heating or air
conditioning to draw outside air into the vehicle as follows:
²If your vehicle has outside air control vents, open them fully.
²Set fan speed on high with function control to any position except
OFF or MAX A/C and the temperature control on any desired position.
²Adjust air control system to force outside air into the vehicle.
Winter fronts
If using an aftermarket winter front (not recommended), it must have a
permanent opening directly in line with the center of the fan drive. The
minimum opening size must be at least 774 square cm (120 square
inches).
The use of an aftermarket winter front or other air flow restriction
device mounted in front of the radiator is not recommended on this
vehicle. Air flow restriction will cause high exhaust temperatures, power
loss, excessive fan usage and a reduction in fuel economy.

Push the palm release lever on the
parking brake handle and push
down as far as possible to release
the brake. Driving with the parking
brake on will cause the brakes to
wear out quickly and reduce fuel
economy.
Parking brake Ð F650 SuperCrewzer only
Pull the parking brake knob out to
apply the parking brake. Push the
knob in to release the parking
brake.
Parking brake warning chime Ð F650 SuperCrewzer
If a chime sounds when pulling the knob out, your parking brake is not
functioning properly, seek service immediately. This chime will sound
until the yellow knob is pushed in or eight minutes have passed. If the
yellow knob is pulled out again, the chime sounds as a reminder that
immediate service is required to the parking brake system.

The push button shifter has a R
(Reverse), N (Neutral) and D
(Drive) selections as well as a
MODE button, up arrow (for
upshifts) and a down arrow
(downshift) and a digital display.
When a range button is pressed, a
tone will sound, the SELECT
indicator displays a chosen
operation (if the electronic control
unit determines the shift is
acceptable) and the transmission
will shift to the starting range. In D
(Drive), selection of a specific gear
can be accomplished by pressing the
up or down arrow button. If the
CHECK TRANS light (located on the instrument panel) is illuminated,
the shifter control pad may be disabled, tones will not be heard, shifts
may not occur and directional shift changes will not be able to be
performed.
The MODE button may be used to
activate a second shift schedule
(this is typically programmed for
Economywhich will enable the
transmission to shift at a lower RPM
to conserve fuel).
These transmissions incorporate a hold feature to prohibit upshifting
above the gear selected during normal driving. During downhill
operation, the transmission may upshift from the selected gear if the
electronic control unit detects the possibility of engine damage from
exceeding the governed engine speed.

D (Drive)- The vehicle will attain
first gear, and as the speed
increases, the transmission will
automatically upshift through each
gear. As the vehicle slows down, the
transmission will automatically
downshift. The Select indicator will
display the highest gear available.
5th or 4th- 2nd gears (depending on application)- Road conditions,
load or traffic can make it desirable to restrict the automatic shifting to a
lower gear. These positions also provide progressively greater engine
braking for descending grades (the lower the gear, the greater the
braking effect).
The push button selector uses up
and down arrow buttons to select
the desired gear. The select
indicator will display your choice
and the monitor will display the
gear selected.
1st gear- Use for pulling through mud or deep snow, when maneuvering
in tight spaces or when driving up or down steep grades. 1st gear
provides maximum driving power and engine braking.
In case of engine shutdown (i.e - running out of fuel), while the
transmission is in gear, the transmission will remain in gear until the
ignition key is turned to the OFF position. After the ignition is turned
off, the transmission will automatically shift to N (Neutral) and the
