Normal vehicle axle maintenance: Rear
axles and power take-off (PTO) units with
synthetic fluid and light-duty trucks
equipped with Ford-design axles are
lubricated for life; do not check or change
fluid unless a leak is suspected, service is
required or the assembly has been
submerged in water. During long periods
of trailer towing with outside temperatures
above 70°F (21°C) and at wide-open
throttle for long periods above 45 mph (72
km/h), non-synthetic rear axle fluids
should be changed every 3000 miles
(4800 km) or three months, whichever
comes first. This interval can be waived if
the axle is filled with 75W140 synthetic
gear fluid meeting Ford specification
WSL-M2C192-A, part number
F1TZ-19580-B, or equivalent. Add friction
modifier XL-3 (EST-M2C118-A) or
equivalent for complete refill of
Traction-Lok rear axles. See Technical
Specifications (page 271).
Police/Taxi/Livery vehicle axle
maintenance: Change rear axle fluid every
100000 miles (160000 km). Rear axle
fluid change may be waived if the axle was
filled with 75W140 synthetic gear fluid
meeting Ford specification
WSL-M2C192-A, part number
F1TZ-19580-B, or equivalent. Add four
ounces (118 mL) of additive friction
modifier XL-3 (EST-M2C118-A) or
equivalent for complete refill of
Traction-Lok rear axles. The axle fluid
should be changed anytime the axle has
been submerged in water.California fuel filter replacement: If the
vehicle is registered in California, the
California Air Resources Board has
determined that the failure to perform this
maintenance item will not nullify the
emission warranty or limit recall liability
prior to the completion of the vehicle's
useful life. Ford Motor Company, however,
urges you to have all recommended
maintenance services performed at the
specified intervals and to record all vehicle
service.
Hot climate oil change intervals:
Vehicles operating in the Middle East,
North Africa, Sub-Saharan Africa or
locations with similar climates using an
American Petroleum Institute (API)
Certified for Gasoline Engines (Certification
mark) oil of SM or SN quality, the normal
oil change interval is 5000 miles (8000
km). If the available API "SM" or "SN" oils
are not available, then the oil change
service interval is 3000 mile (4800 km).
Engine air filter and cabin air filter
replacement: Engine air filter and cabin
air filter life is dependent on exposure to
dusty and dirty conditions. Vehicles
operated in these conditions will require
frequent inspection and replacement of
the engine air filter and cabin air filter.
Engine Coolant Change Record
Initial change: Six years or 100000 miles
(160000 km) (whichever comes first).
After initial change: Every three years or
50000 miles (80000 km).
