fications (the Worldwide Fuel Charter, WWFC)
which define fuel properties necessary to de-
liver enhanced emissions, performance, and
durability for your vehicle. The manufacturer
recommends the use of gasolines that meet the
WWFC specifications if they are available.
Reformulated Gasoline
Many areas of the country require the use of
cleaner burning gasoline referred to as “Refor-
mulated Gasoline”. Reformulated gasoline con-
tain oxygenates and are specifically blended to
reduce vehicle emissions and improve air qual-
ity.
The use of reformulated gasoline is recom-
mended. Properly blended reformulated gaso-
line will provide improved performance and
durability of engine and fuel system compo-
nents.
Gasoline/Oxygenate Blends
Some fuel suppliers blend unleaded gasoline
with oxygenates such as ethanol.
CAUTION!
DO NOT use gasoline containing Methanol
or gasoline containing more than 10% Etha-
nol. Use of these blends may result in start-
ing and drivability problems, damage critical
fuel system components, cause emissions to
exceed the applicable standard, and/or
cause the “Malfunction Indicator Light” to
illuminate. Please observe pump labels as
they should clearly communicate if a fuel
contains greater than 10% ethanol.
Problems that result from using gasoline con-
taining Methanol or gasoline containing more
than 10% ethanol are not the responsibility of
the manufacturer and may void or not be cov-
ered under New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
E-85 Usage In Non-Flex Fuel
Vehicles
Non-Flex Fuel Vehicles (FFV) are compatible
with gasoline containing up to 10% ethanol
(E10). Gasoline with higher ethanol content
may void the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
If a Non-FFV vehicle is inadvertently fueled with
E-85 fuel, the engine will have some or all of
these symptoms:
•
Operate in a lean mode.
•
OBD II “Malfunction Indicator Light” on.
•
Poor engine performance.
•
Poor cold start and cold drivability.
•
Increased risk for fuel system component
corrosion.
Methanol
(Methyl) is used in a variety of concentrations
when blended with unleaded gasoline. You may
find fuels containing 3% or more methanol
along with other alcohols called cosolvents.
Problems that result from using methanol/
gasoline blends are not the responsibility of the
manufacturer.
