The owner's manual indicates that the bottom hole is the minimum fill level and the top hole (not the crosshatch) is the maximum fill level.

My name is still not Chris. If you don't want to answer questions here, then I'm out.

Thanks for your response and the information. I apologize if any of this sounds overly harsh; I don't intend it to be. And by the way, I'm not Chris. Ah, that makes more sense. Mr G had mentioned FMC advising something, so that was a bit surprising to hear. Still, it's interesting to hear about...

Hi Gene and Val, I think it would help if a few matters were clarified: 1) What exactly did FMC advise? To find other people with fuel dilution? To pursue class action? I'm surprised you've gotten anything from them, as previously their advise on fuel dilution basically amounted to "pound...

What's the safety problem I'm supposed to report?

You need proof because you're talking about pursuing a legal case. Without some level of proof of harm to you, the case goes nowhere. And proving that you have some level of fuel dilution is not proof of harm.

I have tests that show over 2% fuel, but before I sign on I need to know what the claim is.

Keep in mind that the offer they give you for a trade-in is given in the context of the whole deal, including the purchase price of the new vehicle and the financing/lease terms. So for example they might give you $1k off the purchase price as compared to the last guy they sold one to, but then...

Pencil tray FTW!!!

They're in Poland, so it does make it a bit hard to go to an American junk yard. Also, if you're the one who provides the template, you get the piece for free.

Had a fuel pump fail on a prior vehicle right after I moved to a new town. Being new to the town and not knowing any of the shops, I had it towed to a shop I had seen pretty close to our house. Shop turned out to be a pain to work with and the quote for the fuel pump replacement as relayed to me...

How do I do the reset? When I was trying to figure this out for my XL, I had seen somewhere that the 94 is sort of compatible...to get it to physically fit there was a part that needed switched out; I don't recall exactly what but I think it may have been the battery tray?

Could be reasonable, depending on how you use the truck. Could you post the UOA?

So what is the problem? It looks to me like your truck is working within the parameters that Ford is saying are normal.

And the rest of the table?

What does your manual say about how often (in terms of miles and/or time) to change your oil?

I second the "way cool" descriptor.

Could you enlarge our Ranger5g virtual museum by posting pics?

In that case, I'm glad to hear that people stop having fuel find its way into their oil after 1000 miles.
