Fuel System
Refer to Safety Precautions on page 25.
Fuel Recommendation
We recommend that you use unleaded fuel
because it produces fewer engine deposits and
extends the life of exhaust system components.
Your engine is designed to use any gasoline that
has a pump octane number of 91 or higher.
Gasoline pumps at service stations normally
display the pump octane number. For
information on the use of oxygenated fuels, see
page 160.
Use of lower octane gasoline can cause persistent
“pinging” or “spark knock” (a louder rapping
noise) which, if severe, can lead to engine
damage. (Light pinging experienced while
operating under a heavy load, such as climbing a
hill, is no cause for concern.)
If pinging or spark knock occurs at a steady
engine speed under normal load, change brands
of gasoline. If pinging or spark knock persists,
consult your Honda dealer.
Never use stale or contaminated gasoline. Avoid
getting dirt, dust or water in the fuel tank.
