2004 FORD F650 seats

Fuel filter replacement - Caterpillar engine
The fuel filter/water separator is
located on the left side of the
engine. Replace the fuel filter/water
separator as recommended in the
general maintenance information
section, or sooner if it becomes
plugged. Vehicles operated on fuel
with more than average impurities
may require replacement of the fuel
filter more frequently. The spin-on
filter has a water drain valve built
into the bottom of the filter canister.
Removal
1. Using an oil filter wrench, remove the filter.
2. Carefully clean the mating surfaces.
Installation
1. Fill the filter with clean, fresh diesel fuel.
2. Coat the filter seal with clean, fresh diesel fuel.
3. Hand-tighten the filter until it seats firmly against the mount, then
tighten (by hand) an additional
1⁄3to1⁄2turn.
4. Start the engine and check for fuel leaks.
Fuel filter replacement - 6.0L Power Stroke engine
Your vehicle is equipped with two fuel filters; one mounted on top of the
engine and the other is mounted inside the frame rail under the
driver-side floorboard near the transmission. Both filters should be
replaced at the same time.

•Check that torque rod mounting fasteners are tight.
•Check to be sure the suspension alignment is maintained at all time.
•Check U-bolts after the chassis has been operating under load for
1,600 km (1,000 miles) or six months, whichever comes first, the
U-Bolt nuts must be re-torqued. The U-Bolt nuts thereafter must be
re-torqued every 58,000 km (36,000 miles). The U-Bolt and nut
threads and seats should be cleaned and lubricated to assure a“like
new”condition when re-torquing.
Note:See theU-Bolt Nut Torquechart later in this section.
Supporting your vehicle for service
When performing service repairs on your vehicle, first prepare the
vehicle by doing the following:
1. Park the vehicle on a level concrete floor.
2. Set the parking brake and block the wheels to prevent the vehicle
from moving.
3. Select a jack (floor jack preferred) with a rated capacity sufficient to
lift and hold up the vehicle.
4. Raise the vehicle with the jack applied to the axle(s). DO NOT use the
bumper as a lifting point.
5. Support the vehicle with floor stands under the axle(s). If the axle or
the suspension are being serviced, support the vehicle with floor stands
under the frame side-members, preferably between the axles.
Do not use a jack when working under a vehicle. It may give
way, causing the vehicle to fall and result in property damage,
personal injury or death. Always use floor stands to support the
vehicle.
FRAME AND TOW HOOKS
Your vehicles chassis is manufactured with frame rails of either mild
carbon steel, or HSLA steel. Each must be handled in a specific manner
to assure maximum service life. Before attempting frame repair or
modification, consult the service manual or your dealer.
It is important, particularly on vehicles where the tow hooks are used
frequently to inspect the front and rear tow hooks for damage or a loose
mounting.

Air suspension U-bolt checks and re-torquing procedures
1. Inspect the threads of the U-bolt and nut for rust and debris. Clean
the threads if contaminated.
2. Using a torque wrench, determine if any nuts can be turned with a
force below the specified torque.
3. Using the lowest discovered torqued nut as a starting point, retighten
the nuts using the sequence listed underAir suspension U-bolt and
U-bolt nut installation.
Air suspension U-bolt and U-bolt nut installation
1. Inspect the threads of the U-bolt and nut for rust and debris. Clean
the threads if contaminated.
2. Install the U-bolts and nuts and torque the nuts to 20 N.m. (15 ft.
lbs.), using a diagonal pattern.
3. Re-torque the nuts to 136 N.m. (100 ft. lbs.), using a diagonal pattern.
4. Re-torque the nuts to 271 N.m. (200 ft. lbs.), using a diagonal pattern.
5. Re-torque the nuts to 542 (400 ft. lbs.), using a diagonal pattern. (For
vehicles equipped with 14ACC, 14 ADN and 14ADP axles, do not use
Step 6.)
6. Re-torque the nuts to 576 N.m. (425 ft. lbs.), using a diagonal pattern.
(For vehicles equipped with 14ACC, 14 ADN and 14ADP axles.)
7. Use the same diagonal pattern with each U-bolt nut re-torque.
Spring U-bolt checks
Check U-bolt nuts and re-torque every 58,000 km (36,000 miles) after
initial 1,600 km (1,000 mile) re-torque. The U-bolt and nut threads and
seats should be cleaned and lubricated to assure peak condition when
re-torqued.
