Vertical Aim Adjustment Procedure
1. Park the vehicle directly in front of a wall or screen on a level surface,
approximately 25 feet (7.6 meters)
away.
2. Measure the height of the headlamp bulb center from the ground and mark
an 8 foot (2.4 meter) horizontal
reference line on the vertical wall or
screen at this height.
Note: To see a clearer light pattern for
adjusting, you may want to block the light
from one headlamp while adjusting the
other.
3. Turn on the low beam headlamps to illuminate the wall or screen and open
the hood. 4. On the wall or screen you will observe
a flat zone of high intensity light
located at the top of the right hand
portion of the beam pattern. If the top
edge of the high intensity light zone is
not at the horizontal reference line, the
headlamp will need to be adjusted. 5. Locate the vertical adjuster on each
headlamp. Using a Phillips #2
screwdriver, turn the adjuster either
clockwise or counterclockwise in order
to adjust the vertical aim of the
headlamp.
6. Repeat steps 3 thru 5 to adjust the other headlamp.
7. Close the hood and turn off the lamps.
Horizontal Aim Adjustment
Horizontal aim is not required for this
vehicle and is not adjustable.

CHANGING A BULB WARNING
Bulbs can become hot. Let the bulb
cool down before removing it. Failure
to do so could result in personal
injury. Headlamp bulbs must be marked with an
authorized D.O.T. marking for North
America to make sure they have the proper
lamp performance, light brightness, light
pattern and safe visibility.
Install in the reverse order unless otherwise
stated.

marked with an authorized “D.O.T.” for
North America and an “E” for Europe to
ensure lamp performance, light brightness
and pattern and safe visibility. The correct
bulbs will not damage the lamp assembly
or void the lamp assembly warranty and
will provide quality bulb illumination time. Trade name

CHANGING THE ENGINE AIR
FILTER - 6.8L
WARNING
To reduce the risk of vehicle damage
and personal burn injuries, do not
start your engine with the air cleaner
removed and do not remove it while the
engine is running. Note:
Operating your vehicle in heavy
snowfall or extreme rain conditions may
allow excessive amounts of snow or water
into the air intake system. This could plug
or soak the air filter that could cause the
engine to lose power or shut down.
When replacing the air filter element, use
a Motorcraft® air filter element. See
Motorcraft Parts (page 254).
Note: Failure to use the correct air filter
element may result in severe engine
damage. Resulting component damage
may not be covered by the vehicle Warranty.
Change the air filter element at the correct
interval. See
Scheduled Maintenance
(page 316). 1. Locate the mass air flow sensor
electrical connector on the air outlet
tube. Disconnect the mass air flow
sensor electrical connector. 2. Reposition the locking clip on the
connector (connector shown from
below for clarity), squeeze the
connector and pull it off of the air
outlet tube. 3.
Clean the area from around the air tube
to the air cover connection to prevent
debris from entering the system. Next,
loosen the bolt on the air tube clamp
so the clamp is no longer snug to the
air tube. It is not necessary to
completely remove the clamp.
4. Pull the air tube off from the air cleaner
housing.
209
F-650/750 (TBC) , enUSA, First Printing MaintenanceE163755 E163756 E163757

5. Remove the clips that secure the air
filter housing cover. Push the air filter
cover toward the center of the vehicle
and up slightly to release it.
6. Remove the air filter element from the
air filter housing.
7. Install the new air filter element.
8. Engage the clips to secure the air filter housing cover to the air filter housing.
Be careful not to crimp the filter
element edges between the air filter
housing and cover. Ensure that you
align the tabs on the edge properly into
the slots.
9. Slip the air tube onto the air filter housing and tighten the air-tube clamp
bolt snugly. Do not over tighten
air-tube clamp bolt. 10. Reconnect the mass air flow sensor
electrical connector to the outlet
tube. Make sure the locking tab on
the connector is in the locked position
(connector shown from below for
clarity).

FILTER - 6.7L DIESEL
Air Filter Restriction Gauge WARNING
To reduce the risk of vehicle damage
and/or personal burn injuries do not
start your engine with the air filter
removed and do not remove it while the
engine is running. Note:
Operating your vehicle in heavy
snowfall or extreme rain conditions may
allow excessive amounts of snow or water
into the air intake system. This could plug
or soak the air filter that could cause the
engine to lose power or shut down.

The restriction gauge, located on the upper
housing of the air filter assembly, measures
the vacuum inside the air filter. The more
the air filter is restricted (dirty, clogged),
the higher the vacuum reading.
Check the air filter restriction gauge
whenever you open the hood to perform
general engine maintenance or at least
every 7,500 miles (12,000 km). If you
operate your vehicle in extremely dusty
conditions, check and reset the gauge at
least every 500 miles (800 km), or two
weeks, whichever comes first. Change the
air filter when the restriction gauge reads
near the change filter line and the gauge
is yellow. If you allow the restriction gauge
to reach maximum restriction you can
affect your engine performance and fuel
economy.
Note:
Do not blow out the air filter element
with compressed air since the compressed
air could damage the filter paper.
Note: Do not rely on filter appearance
alone. A filter which appears to be dirty may
actually have several thousand miles
(kilometers) of life remaining. After installation of the new filter element,
reset the gauge by pressing the reset
button on top of the gauge.
The following actions are recommend after
operating the vehicle up to 200 miles (320
km) in heavy snowfall or extreme rain:
•
Snow: At the earliest opportunity, open
the hood and clear all the snow and ice
from the air filter housing inlet (do NOT
remove the foam filter) and reset the
air filter restriction gauge.
• Extreme rain: The air filter will dry after
about 15– 30 minutes at highway
speeds. At the earliest opportunity,
open the hood and reset the air filter
restriction gauge.
Air Filter Replacement
When replacing the air filter element, use
a Motorcraft® air filter element. See
Motorcraft Parts (page 255).
Note: Failure to use the correct air filter
element may result in severe engine
damage.

1. Locate the mass airflow sensor
electrical connector on the air inlet
tube. This connector will need to be
unplugged. Unlock the locking clip on
the connector, then squeeze and pull
the connector off the air inlet tube.
212
F-650/750 (TBC) , enUSA, First Printing MaintenanceE163374

2. Remove the clips that secure the air
filter housing cover. Push the air filter
cover forward (away from you) and up
slightly to release it.
3. Remove the air filter element from the
air filter housing. 4. Remove and install a new foam filter
if needed according to the service
interval indicated in the scheduled
maintenance information in this guide.
If you do not replace the foam filter, be
sure the existing foam filter is in place. 5. Install a new air filter element. Be sure
that the groove seal on the pleated
paper filter traps both sides of the
vertical partition of the air box.
6. Engage the clips to secure the air filter housing cover to the air filter housing.
Be careful not to crimp the filter
element edges between the air filter
housing and cover. Ensure that you
align the tabs on the edge properly into
the slots.
7. Reconnect the mass airflow sensor electrical connector to the inlet tube.
Make sure the locking tab on the
connector is in the locked position.
Air Purge Procedure
Turn the key on for 30 seconds, and then
turn off. Repeat the procedure six times.
