2004 Ford Taurus Owners Manual

Cleaning
PAINT CHIPS
Your dealer has  touch-up paint and  sprays to match your  vehicles color.
Take your color  code (printed on  a sticker in the  drivers door jam)  to
your dealer to  ensure you get  the correct color.
Remove particles such  as bird droppings,  tree sap, insect deposits,  tar
spots, road salt  and industrial fallout  before repairing paint chips.
Always read the  instructions before using  the products.
ALUMINUM WHEELS AND WHEEL  COVERS
Aluminum wheels and  wheel covers are  coated with a clearcoat  paint
finish. In order  to maintain their  shine:
Clean weekly with  Motorcraft Wheel and  Tire Cleaner (ZC-37A),
which is available  from your dealer.  Heavy dirt and brake  dust
accumulation may require  agitation with a  sponge. Rinse thoroughly
with a strong  stream of water.
Never apply any  cleaning chemical to hot  or warm wheel rims  or covers.
Some automatic car  washes may cause  damage to the finish  on your
wheel rims or  covers. Chemical-strength cleaners,  or cleaning
chemicals, in combination  with brush agitation  to remove brake dust
and dirt, could  wear away the  clearcoat finish over time.
Do not use  hydrofluoric acid-based or  high caustic-based wheel
cleaners, steel wool,  fuels or strong  household detergent.
To remove tar  and grease, use  Motorcraft Bug and Tar  Remover
(ZC-42), available from  your dealer.
ENGINE
Engines are more  efficient when they  are clean because grease  and dirt
buildup keep the  engine warmer than  normal. When washing:
Take care when  using a power  washer to clean the  engine. The
high-pressure fluid could  penetrate the sealed  parts and cause
damage.
Do not spray  a hot engine  with cold water to  avoid cracking the
engine block or  other engine components.
Spray Motorcraft Engine  Shampoo and Degreaser  (ZC-20) on all parts
that require cleaning  and pressure rinse  clean.
Cover the highlighted  areas to prevent  water damage when cleaning
the engine.
