Lincoln Aviator: Vehicle Care / Cleaning the 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 on all parts that require
cleaning and pressure rinse clean. In
Canada, use Motorcraft Engine Shampoo.
Note: If your vehicle has an engine cover
remove the cover before application of
Motorcraft Engine Shampoo and Degreaser.
Immediately rinse away any over spray.
- Never wash or rinse the engine while it
is hot or running; water in the running
engine may cause internal damage.
- Never wash or rinse any ignition coil,
spark plug wire or spark plug well, or the
area in and around these locations.
- Cover the battery, power distribution box,
and air filter assembly to prevent water
damage when cleaning the engine.
Regular waxing is necessary to protect your
car's paint from the elements. We
recommend that you wash and wax the
painted surface once or twice a year...
Car wash chemicals and environmental
fallout can result in windshield and wiper
blade contamination. Dirty windshield and
wipers will result in poor windshield wiper
operation...

WARNING: Only use replacement
tires and wheels that are the same size,
load index, speed rating and type (such as

and wheel size may be found on either the
Safety Compliance Certification Label

the driver's door...
