INTRODUCTION NOTE: Ford Motor Company reserves the right to discontinue models at any time, or change specifications or design without notice and without incurring any obligation. IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE Appropriate service methods and procedures are essential for the safe, reliable operation of all motor vehicles as well as the personal safety of the individual doing the work. This manual provides general directions for performing service with tested, effective techniques. Following them will help assure reliability. There are numerous variations in procedure, techniques, tools and parts for servicing vehicles, as well as in the skill of the individual doing the work. This manual cannot possibly anticipate all such variations and provide advice or cautions as to each. Accordingly, anyone who departs from the instructions provided in this manual must first establish that they compromise neither their personal safety nor the vehicle integrity by their choice of methods, tools or parts. NOTES, CAUTIONS AND WARNINGS As you read through the procedures, you will come across NOTES, CAUTIONS, and WARNINGS. Each one is there for a specific purpose. NOTES give you added information that will help you to perform a particular procedure. CAUTIONS are given to prevent you from making an error that could damage the vehicle. WARNINGS remind you to be especially careful in those areas where carelessness can cause yourself and others personal injury. The following list contains some general WARNINGS that you should follow when you work on a vehicle. • ALWAYS WEAR SAFETY GLASSES FOR EYE PROTECTION. • KEEP SOLVENTS AWAY FROM IGNITION SOURCES. SOLVENTS MAY BE FLAMMABLE AND COULD IGNITE OR EXPLODE IF NOT HANDLED CORRECTLY. • USE SAFETY STANDS WHENEVER A PROCEDURE REQUIRES YOU TO BE UNDER THE VEHICLE. • MAKE SURE THAT THE IGNITION SWITCH IS ALWAYS IN THE OFF POSITION, UNLESS OTHERWISE REQUIRED BY THE PROCEDURE. • SET THE PARKING BRAKE WHEN WORKING ON THE VEHICLE. IF YOU HAVE AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, SET IN PARK UNLESS INSTRUCTED OTHERWISE FOR A SPECIFIC OPERATION. IF YOU HAVE A MANUAL TRANSMISSION, IT SHOULD BE IN REVERSE (ENGINE OFF) OR NEUTRAL (ENGINE ON) UNLESS INSTRUCTED OTHERWISE FOR A SPECIFIC OPERATION. PLACE WOOD BLOCKS (4" X 4" OR LARGER) OR WHEEL CHOCKS AGAINST THE FRONT AND REAR SURFACES OF THE TIRES TO HELP PREVENT THE VEHICLE FROM MOVING. • OPERATE THE ENGINE ONLY IN A WELL-VENTILATED AREA TO AVOID THE DANGER OF CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING. • KEEP YOURSELF AND YOUR CLOTHING AWAY FROM MOVING PARTS WHEN THE ENGINE IS RUNNING, ESPECIALLY THE DRIVE BELTS. • TO PREVENT SERIOUS BURNS, AVOID CONTACT WITH HOT METAL PARTS SUCH AS THE RADIATOR, EXHAUST MANIFOLD, TAIL PIPE, THREE-WAY CATALYTIC CONVERTER AND MUFFLER. • DO NOT SMOKE WHILE WORKING ON A VEHICLE. • TO AVOID INJURY, ALWAYS REMOVE RINGS, WATCHES, LOOSE HANGING JEWELRY AND LOOSE CLOTHING BEFORE BEGINNING TO WORK ON A VEHICLE. • WHEN IT IS NECESSARY TO WORK UNDER THE HOOD, KEEP HANDS AND OTHER OBJECTS CLEAR OF THE COOLING FAN BLADES! TOOLS Commercially available hand tools and equipment are used along with Essential Special Service Tools (ESST) and Rotunda equipment. Power tools have become the acceptable industry standard and are used for disassembly only where applicable, unless specified otherwise in the Workshop Manual. The only exception to this policy is installing wheels in conjunction with the use of torque sticks, when possible.

100-01-8 100-01-8 Identification Codes DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION (Continued) Protocol 2 NOTE: Powertrain calibration information is limited to a maximum of 5 characters per line on the Vehicle Certification (VC) Label. Because of this, calibration identification consisting of more than 5 characters will wrap to the second line on the VC label. Powertrain calibration information is printed in the lower right corner of the Vehicle Certification Label. Only the base calibration information is printed. Revision levels will not appear, however, this information can be found in the On Line Automotive Service Information System (OASIS). For the current model year, Ford Motor Company is using 3 different protocols which describe Item Description powertrain base calibration. These protocols are 1 Model year (model year in which designed to provide worldwide standardization for calibration strategy was first vehicle calibration. If the electronic calibration introduced) strategy has been used since 1998 and carried into 2 Engine code the current model year, Protocol 1 will be used. 3 Transmission code Refer to Protocol 1 below. If the electronic calibration strategy has been used since 1999 and is 4 Emission standard (designates the carried into the current model year, Protocol 2 will specific country emission standard) be used. Refer to Protocol 2 below. For new 5 Design level (design level assigned to electronic calibration strategies introduced since the the engine) 2000 model year, use Protocol 3. Refer to Protocol 3 below. Protocol 3 Protocol 1 Item Description Item Description 1 Model year (model year in which calibration strategy was first 1 Model year (model year in which introduced) calibration strategy was first introduced) 2 Vehicle code 2 Engine code 3 Transmission code 3 Engine revision level 4 Unique calibration (designates different hardware to similar vehicles).
