ENGINE
Engines are more efficient when they are clean because grease and dirt
buildup keep the engine warmer than normal. When washing:
•Take care when using a power washer to clean the engine. The
high-pressure fluid could penetrate the sealed parts and cause
damage.
•Do not spray a hot engine with cold water to avoid cracking the
engine block or other engine components.
•Spray Motorcraft Engine Shampoo and Degreaser (ZC-20) on all parts
that require cleaning and pressure rinse clean.
•Never wash or rinse the engine while it is running; water in the
running engine may cause internal damage.
•Cover the highlighted areas to prevent water damage when cleaning
the engine.
•F–Super Duty/Excursion 6.0L Diesel engine

SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE
The scheduled maintenance services in theGeneral Owner’s
Informationsection of this supplement are required because they are
considered essential to the life and performance of your vehicle.
Use only recommended fuel, lubricants, fluids and service parts
conforming to Ford specifications. Motorcraft parts are designed and
built for best performance in your vehicle.
FUEL REQUIREMENTS
The engine is designed to use low sulfur number 1–Dor2–D Diesel fuel
only. At temperatures below -7°C (20°F), number 1–D or winter blend
number 2–D fuel is recommended. (SeeCold weather operationin the
Drivingchapter.)
Do not use fuel intended for agricultural use (agricultural fuel is
dyed red), home heating oil or any Diesel fuel not intended for
highway use. Damage to the fuel injection system, engine and
exhaust catalyst can occur if an improper fuel is used.
Do not add gasoline, gasohol or alcohol to Diesel fuel. This
practice creates a serious fire hazard and engine performance
problems.
It should not be necessary to add any aftermarket additives to your fuel
tank if you use a properly formulated Diesel fuel that meets the ASTM D
975 industry specification. Aftermarket additives can damage the injector
system or engine.
