2004 Ford F-350 Service and Repair Manual

This factory service and repair manual for the 2004 Ford F-350 works to a short specification list, the 5.4L single overhead cam gasoline V8, a two-door standard cab pickup body, and XL and XLT trims, which lets the sections spend their space on procedure rather than on variants. Engine mechanical, fuel and emissions, transmission, driveline, brakes, steering, suspension, climate control and body electrical each carry their own specifications, torque values, wiring diagrams and diagnostics.

Known issues on the 2004 F-350. The federal record lists three recalls. One concerns pickups inadvertently fitted with a tire that did not meet the federal standard for tire selection and rims, where an overloaded or over-inflated tire could rupture and cause rapid air loss. The other two cover tail lamp service parts and an incorrectly wired trailer adaptor. Owners have filed 159 complaints with NHTSA, and the engine and cooling system accounts for the largest share by a wide margin, ahead of engine and electrical system entries.
