Misfuel risk Moderate
US Ranger Raptor is gasoline, unlike diesel Raptors sold elsewhere. Drivers may assume truck-lane diesel is correct — diesel into gasoline is the US risk.
If the engine was not started
Keep ignition off until tank is drained.
If the engine was started
Inspect HP fuel pump and injectors if engine ran on diesel-contaminated gasoline.
Access procedure
