2013 FORD SUPER DUTY engine

If the engine runs hot
The following could cause the engine to overheat:
•Lack of coolant.
•Dirty cooling system.
•Plugged radiator fins, A/C condenser and/or oil cooler.
•Malfunctioning fan drive.
•Driving with frozen coolant.
•Sticking thermostat.
•Overloading or pulling heavy trailers during hot weather.
•Grill or radiator air blockage.
•Slipping or missing drive belt.
•Plugged or very dirty air filter.
If fuses burn out
WARNING:Replacement fuses and circuit breakers must always
be the same rating as the original equipment shown. Never
replace a fuse or circuit breaker with one of a higher rating. Higher
rated fuses or circuit breakers could allow circuit overloading in the
event of a circuit malfunction, resulting in severe vehicle damage or
personal injury due to fire.
Burned-out or blown fuses usually indicate an electrical short-circuit,
although a fuse may occasionally burn out from vibration. Insert a second
fuse. If this fuse immediately burns out and you cannot locate the cause,
return your vehicle to your dealer for a circuit check.
Refer to theOwner’s Manualfor replacement of fuses.
Selective catalytic reduction (SCR) system speed limit and
Idle-only modes
If the vehicle’s speed is limited or in an idle-only mode, the SCR system
may be limiting the vehicle’s functions due to low or contaminated diesel
exhaust fluid (DEF). Check the DEF. SeeSelective catalytic reduction
(SCR) systemin theFuel and Refuelingchapter for more information.

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.

EXHAUST
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.
The visible holes in the exhaust 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.

Protecting Your Investment
Maintenance is an investment that will pay dividends in the form of
improved reliability, durability and resale value. To maintain the proper
performance of your vehicle and its emission control systems, it is
imperative that scheduled maintenance be completed at the designated
intervals.
Your vehicle is equipped with the Intelligent Oil-Life Monitor® (IOLM)
system which displays a message in the information display at the proper
oil change service interval; this interval may be up to one year or
10000 miles (16000 kilometers). When ENGINE OIL CHANGE DUE or
OIL CHANGE REQUIRED appears in the information display, it is time
for an oil change; the oil change must be done within two weeks or
500 miles (800 kilometers) of the ENGINE OIL CHANGE DUE or OIL
CHANGE REQUIRED message appearing. The Intelligent Oil-Life
Monitor® must be reset after each oil change; see theInformation
Displayschapter of yourOwner’s Manual.
If your information display is prematurely reset or becomes inoperative,
you should perform the oil change interval at six months or 5000 miles
(8000 kilometers) from your last oil change. Never exceed one year or
10000 miles (16000 kilometers) between oil change intervals.
Your vehicle is very sophisticated and built with multiple, complex,
performance systems. Every manufacturer develops these systems using
different specifications and performance features. That is why it is
important to rely upon your dealership to properly diagnose and repair
your vehicle.
Ford Motor Company has recommended maintenance intervals for
various parts and component systems based upon engineering testing.
Ford Motor Company relies upon this testing to determine the most
appropriate mileage for replacement of oils and fluids to protect your
vehicle at the lowest overall cost to you and recommends against
maintenance schedules that deviate from the scheduled maintenance
information.
Ford strongly recommends the use of only genuine Ford, Motorcraft® or
Ford-authorized remanufactured replacement parts because they are
engineered for your vehicle.
Additives and Chemicals
Ford Motor Company recommended additives and chemicals are listed in
the owner manual and in the Ford Workshop Manual. Additional
chemicals or additives not approved by Ford Motor Company are not
recommended as part of normal maintenance. Please consult your
warranty information.

Oils, Fluids and Flushing
In many cases, fluid discoloration is a normal operating characteristic
and, by itself, does not necessarily indicate a concern or that the fluid
needs to be changed. However, discolored fluids that also show signs of
overheating and foreign material contamination should be inspected
immediately by a qualified expert, such as the factory-trained technicians
at your dealership. Your vehicle’s oils and fluids should be changed at the
specified intervals or in conjunction with a repair. Flushing is a viable
way to change fluid for many vehicle sub-systems during scheduled
maintenance. It is critical that systems are flushed only with new fluid
that is the same as that required to fill and operate the system, or using
a Ford-approved flushing chemical.
Owner Checks and Services
Certain basic maintenance checks and inspections should be performed by
the owner or a service technician at the intervals indicated. Service
information and supporting specifications are provided in theOwner’s Guide.
Any adverse condition should be brought to the attention of your dealer
or qualified service technician as soon as possible for the proper service
advice. The owner maintenance service checks are generally not covered
by warranties so you may be charged for labor, parts or fluids used.
Check Every Month
Engine air filter restriction gauge.
Fuel filter/water separator. Drain if necessary (or if indicated by the
information display).
Holes/Slots in the tail pipe to make sure they are functional and clear
of debris.
Retightening Lug Nuts*
Vehicles with
single rear wheelsRetighten the lug nuts to the specified torque at
500 miles (800 km) after any wheel disturbance (tire
rotation, changing a flat tire, wheel removal, etc.)
Vehicles with dual
rear wheelsRetighten the wheel lug nuts to the specified torque
at 100 miles (160 km), and again at 500 miles
(800 km) of new vehicle operation and after any
wheel disturbance (tire rotation, changing a flat tire,
wheel removal, etc.)
*SeeWheel lug nut torque specificationsin yourOwner’s Manualfor
the proper lug nut torque specification.
