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
EXHAUST (F-SUPER DUTY ONLY)
The visible holes in each leg of the twin tip and the holes under the
shield just inboard of the right rear tire(s) are functional. The holes need
to be kept clear of mud/debris or foreign material to maintain proper
function of the exhaust system. Clean and remove debris or foreign
material if present as needed. Spraying with a hose during regular
washing of vehicle should help keep holes clean and clear of debris or
foreign material.

WARNING:Failure to maintain the functional holes, in the
tailpipe section of the exhaust, clean and free of debris or
foreign material may result in the holes becoming blocked or plugged.
Do not modify or remove the tail-pipe section. Blocked or plugged
holes or removal/modification of the system could result in elevated
exhaust gas temperatures which may result in vehicle/property damage
or personal injury
WARNING:The normal operating temperature of the exhaust
system is very high. Never work around or attempt to repair any
part of the exhaust system until it has cooled. Use special care when
working around the diesel oxidation catalytic converter and/or the
diesel particulate filter (DPF). The diesel oxidation catalytic converter
and/or the DPF heats up to a high temperature after only a short
period of engine operation and can stay hot even after the engine is
turned off. Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal
injury.
