STARTING A DIESEL ENGINE
Read all starting instructions carefully
before you start your vehicle.
For temperatures below 32°F (0°C), the
use of the correct grade engine oil is
essential for proper operation. Refer to
Engine oil specifications for more
information. See Technical
Specifications (page 56).
Your vehicle may be equipped with a cold
weather starting strategy that prevents
severe engine damage by assisting in
engine lubrication warm-up. In extremely
cold ambient temperatures, this strategy
activates and prevents the accelerator
pedal from being used for 30 seconds after
starting your vehicle. A message will
appear in the information display as your
vehicle warms up. By not allowing the
accelerator pedal to be used, the engine
oil is allowed to properly lubricate the
bearings preventing engine damage due
to lack of proper lubrication. After the 30
second warm-up period, the accelerator
pedal will be operational again and a
message will appear informing you the
vehicle is ok to drive.
When starting the engine in extremely cold
temperatures (-15°F [– 26°C]), it is
recommended to allow the engine to idle
for several minutes before driving the
vehicle.
Make sure the gearshift lever is in P (Park)
and the parking brake is fully set before
you turn the key. Do not press the
accelerator during starting.
Cold Weather Starting WARNINGS
Do not use starting fluid, such as
ether, in the air intake system (see
air filter decal). Such fluid could
cause immediate explosive damage to the
engine and possible personal injury WARNINGS
Do not add gasoline, gasohol, alcohol
or Kerosene to diesel fuel. This
practice creates a serious fire hazard
and causes engine performance problems. It is recommended that the engine block
heater be used for starting when the
temperature is -10°F (-23°C) or colder.
Refer to Engine block heater later in this
chapter for more information.
When operating in cold weather,
Motorcraft® cetane improvers or
non-alcohol-based cetane improvers from
a reputable manufacturer may be used as
needed.
Do not crank the engine for more than 10
seconds as starter damage may occur. If
the engine fails to start, turn the key to
position 3 (off) and wait 30 seconds
before trying again.
1. Turn the key to on without turning the
key to start. Do not start the engine
until the glow-plug indicator turns off.
2. When the glow plug pre-heat indicator
turns off, turn the key to start and
release the key as soon as the engine
starts. After starting the engine, the
glow plugs may remain on for a period.
If you do not start the engine before
the glow plug activation time ends, you
will need to reset the glow plugs by
turning the key to off.
3. After the engine starts, allow it to idle for about 15 seconds. This is to protect
the engine. Do not increase engine
speed until the oil pressure gauge
indicates normal pressure.

Super Duty (TFA) Starting and Stopping the Engine

In order to operate the engine in
temperatures of 32°F (0°C) or lower, read
the following instructions:
•
Make sure that the batteries are of
sufficient size and are fully charged.
Check other electrical components to
make sure they are in optimum
condition
• Use the proper coolant solution at the
concentration recommended
protecting the engine against damage
from freezing
• Try to keep the fuel tank full as much
as possible at the end of operation to
prevent condensation in the fuel
system
• Make sure you use proper cold weather
engine oil and that it is at its proper
level. Also, if necessary, make sure to
follow the engine oil and filter change
schedule found under the Special
operating conditions section listed in
the scheduled maintenance
information
• At temperatures of -10°F (-23°C) or
below, it is recommended that you use
an engine block heater to improve cold
engine starting
• If operating in arctic temperatures of
-20°F (-29°C) or lower, consult your
truck dealer for information about
special cold weather equipment and
precautions
The following cold weather idling
guidelines are recommended:
• You can use Motorcraft® cetane
improvers or non-alcohol-based
cetane improvers from a reputable
manufacturer as needed.
• Maintain the engine cooling system
properly. •
Avoid shutting the engine down after
an extensive idling period. Drive your
vehicle for several miles with the
engine at normal operating
temperatures under a moderate load.
• Consider using an engine block heater.
• For extended idle times use an
approved idle speed increase device.
Winter Operating Tips for Arctic
Operation -20°F (-29°C) and Below
The following information is a guideline
only and is no to be the only source of
possible solutions in resolving extreme
cold temperature issues.
Starting Aids WARNING
Do not use starting fluid, such as
ether, in the air intake system (see
air filter decal). Such fluid could
cause immediate explosive damage to the
engine and possible personal injury. The use of the factory engine block heater
assists in engine starting in extreme cold
ambient temperatures. Refer to Engine
block heater in the Starting and Stopping
the Engine chapter of your Owner
’s
Manual.
Idle Control
Your vehicle may have a factory option for
a stationary elevated idle control through
dash-mounted upfitter switches that
allows the operator to elevate the idle rpm
for extended idle periods, as well as
aftermarket equipment such as PTO
operation. You must configure this feature
even if ordered from the factory. See your
authorized dealer for required upfitting.
11
Super Duty (TFA) Starting and Stopping the Engine

•
One minute after the engine has shut
down, the electrical system simulates
key off, even though the ignition is still
in the on position, initiating normal
accessory delay period
• You must move the ignition to the off
position to reset the system before
restarting your vehicle.
The engine idle shutdown idle timer does
not start if:
• The engine is operating in power
take-off mode.
• The engine coolant temperature is
below 60°F (16°C).
• The exhaust emission control device is
regenerating.
ENGINE BLOCK HEATER (IF
EQUIPPED)
Refer to the Starting and Stopping the
Engine chapter in your Owner ’s Manual.
Rapid Heat Supplemental Heating
System
Note: Additional aftermarket electrical
loads operated during engine warm up may
affect the performance of the rapid heat
supplemental heater.
The optional rapid heat feature is an
electrically powered device that provides
supplemental heat during engine warm up.
During initial warm up, you should use a
mid to low blower speed for maximum
effectiveness. When operating in
automatic mode (when equipped) the
climate control unit determines the
appropriate blower speed for existing
conditions.
13
Super Duty (TFA) Starting and Stopping the Engine

•
(1) For severe duty service, use SAE
5W-40 API CJ-4.
• (2) For the use of biodiesel (grade B20
max), use SAE 5W-40 or SAE 15W-40
API CJ-4.
An engine block heater is recommended
at temperatures below – 10°F (–23°C). The American Petroleum Institute (API)
service symbol is used to identify the
proper engine oil for your engine. The API
service symbol will be displayeded on the
oil container you purchase. The API symbol
displays the oil performance category in
the top half of symbol and the viscosity
grade in the center of the symbol.
Changing the Engine Oil and Oil
Filter
WARNINGS
Do not handle a hot oil filter with
bare hands.
Continuous contact with used motor
oil has caused cancer in laboratory
mice. Protect your skin by washing
with soap and water. Your vehicle is equipped with an Intelligent
Oil Life Monitor™ that calculates the
proper oil change service interval. When
the information display indicates: OIL
CHANGE REQUIRED, change the engine
oil and oil filter. See the Information
Displays chapter in the Owner's Manual
for more information.
The engine oil filter protects your engine
by filtering harmful, abrasive or sludge
particles and particles significantly smaller
than most available will-fit filters. For
engine oil filter part number, See
Motorcraft Parts (page 54).
To change the engine oil and oil filter:
1. Unscrew the oil filter and oil pan drain plug and wait for the oil to drain.
2. Replace the filter.
3. Reinstall the oil pan drain plug.
4. Refill the engine with new oil. For the proper capacity, See
Technical
Specifications (page 56).
