ENGINE OVER-REV
Note:Engine torque and maximum rpm are limited until coolant
temperature reaches 170°F (77°C). Warm up is indicated when the
redline indicator band starting point changes from 6250 rpm to
7000 rpm.
Your vehicle is equipped with an over-rev feature to increase the
performance range of your Shelby GT500. When conditions permit,
over-rev is indicated on the tachometer with redline marked at 7000 rpm.
If conditions limit over-rev accessibility, the band is illuminated red from
6250 RPM to 7000 RPM.
Once the engine is warm, the over-rev feature allows eight seconds above
6250 RPM up to 7000 RPM. If the eight second time limit is exceeded,
the maximum engine RPM is reduced to 6250 RPM until both of the
following occurs:
•Engine is operated for at least 15 seconds below 6000 RPM
•Engine RPM falls below 5000 RPM.
Do not operate the engine at high RPM and low load for sustained
periods of time, as damage may occur.

1Add the coolant type originally equipped in your vehicle.2Rear axle lubricants do not need to be checked or changed unless a leak is suspected, service is
required or the axle assembly has been submerged in water. The axle lubricant should be changed
any time the rear axle has been submerged in water. For vehicles with a cooler, the axle pump
must be running to perform the service refill.
Fill 1/4-9/16 inch (6-14 millimeters) below bottom of fill hole.3The TREMEC 6060 6-speed manual transmission on your Shelby GT500 uses MERCON® V
automatic transmission fluid. Make sure that the correct MERCON® V ATF automatic transmission
fluid is used as indicated on the label on your transmission.4Service refill capacity is determined by filling the transmission to the bottom of the filler hole with
the vehicle on a level surface. For vehicles with a transmission cooler, the engine must be running,
the clutch pedal must be released, and the transmission must be in neutral to perform the service
refill.

EXCEPTIONS
There are several exceptions to the Normal Schedule. They are listed
below:
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 kilometers) or three months,
whichever comes first. This interval can be waived if the axle is filled
with 75W85 Premium Synthetic Hypoid Gear Lubricant meeting Ford
specification WSS-M2C942–A, part number XY–75W85–QL or equivalent.
Add friction modifier XL-3 (EST-M2C118-A) or equivalent for complete
refill of Traction-Lok rear axles (refer to theCapacities and
Specificationschapter for details).
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 FITZ-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 kilometers).
If the available API SM or SN oils are not available, then the oil change
service interval is 3000 miles (4800 kilometers).
Engine air filter replacement:Engine air filter life is dependent on
exposure to dusty and dirty conditions. Vehicles operated in these
conditions require frequent inspection and replacement of the engine air
filter.
