DUAL FUEL TANK SELECTOR CONTROL (IF EQUIPPED)
If your vehicle is equipped with dual
fuel tanks, you will have a selector
control, located to the right of the
steering wheel, which allows you to
draw fuel from either tank. Your fuel
gauge will display the amount of
fuel in the currently selected tank.
Fuel level indication is delayed for several minutes when the tank
selector switch is actuated. Fuel level indication can be obtained
immediately by turning off and restarting the engine.

Integrated hitch rating
The standard integrated hitch has two ratings depending on mode of
operation:
•Weight carrying- requires a draw bar and hitch ball. The draw bar
supports all the vertical tongue load of the trailer.
•Weight distributing- requires an aftermarket weight distributing
system which includes draw bar, hitch ball, spring bars and snap-up
brackets. The vertical tongue load of the trailer is distributed between
the truck and the trailer by this system.

Changing engine oil and filter
Change your oil and filter according to thescheduled maintenance
informationin this supplement. Change more frequently if your vehicle
operation includes extended periods of idling or low-speed operation,
driving for a long time in cold temperatures or driving short distances.
See the following sectionEngine lubrication for severe service
operationfor all severe duty restrictions.
Refer toMotorcraft part numberslater in this chapter for the engine oil
filter part number. This filter protects your engine by filtering harmful,
abrasive or sludge particles and particles significantly smaller than most
available “will-fit” filters.
To replace the filter,
1. Unscrew the oil filter cap and wait a few seconds for the oil to drain
through the built-in drain valve.Note:The filter should be changed
before reinstalling the oil pan drain plug.
2. Reinstall and tighten the oil filter cap.
WARNING:Do not handle a hot oil filter with bare hands.
WARNING:Continuous contact with USED motor oil has caused
cancer in laboratory mice. Protect your skin by washing with
soap and water.
Engine lubrication for severe service operation
The following severe service operating conditions require unique engine
maintenance procedures:
•frequent or extended idling (over 10 minutes per hour of normal
driving).
•if vehicle is operated in sustained ambient temperatures below -10°F
(-23°C) or above 100°F (38°C)
•frequent low speed operation, consistent heavy traffic less than
25 mph (40 km/h)
•operating in severe dust conditions.
•towing a trailer over 1,000 miles (1,600 km)
•sustained, high speed driving at Gross Vehicle Weight Rating
(maximum loaded weight for vehicle operation)

modifications of the emission control system(s) could create liability
under applicable Federal or Provincial laws.
Do not remove or alter the original equipment floor covering or
insulation between it and the metal floor of the vehicle. The floor
covering and insulation protect occupants of the vehicle from the engine
and exhaust system heat and noise. On vehicles with no original
equipment floor covering insulation, do not carry passengers in a manner
that permits prolonged skin contact with the metal floor. Provide
adequate insulation.
NOISE EMISSIONS WARRANTY, PROHIBITED TAMPERING ACTS
AND MAINTENANCE
On January 1, 1978, Federal regulation became effective governing the
noise emission on trucks over 10,000 lbs. (4,536 kg) GVWR (Gross
Vehicle Weight Rating). The following statements concerning prohibited
tampering acts and maintenance, and the noise warranty found in the
Customer Information Guide, are applicable to complete chassis cabs
over 10,000 lbs. (4,536 kg) GVWR.
Tampering with noise control system prohibited
Federal law prohibits the following acts or the causing thereof: (1) The
removal or rendering inoperative by any person other than for purposes
of maintenance, repair or replacement of any device or element of design
incorporated into any new vehicle for the purpose of noise control prior
to its sale or delivery to the ultimate purchaser or while it is in use, or
(2) the use of the vehicle after such device or element of design has
been removed or rendered inoperative by any person.
Among those acts which the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency may
presume to constitute tampering are the acts listed below:
•Removal of hood blanket, fender apron absorbers, fender apron
barriers, underbody noise shields or acoustically absorptive material.
•Tampering or rendering inoperative the engine speed governor, so as
to allow engine speed to exceed manufacturer’s specifications.
The complexity of the diesel engine makes it so the owner is discouraged
from attempting to perform maintenance other than the services
described in this supplement.
