Your KYMCO engine has been designed to use
regular unleaded gasoline with a pump octane
number of 86 or higher, or research octane
number of 91 or higher. If knocking or pinging
occurs, use a different brand of gasoline or
premium unleaded fuel. Unleaded fuel will give
you longer spark plug life and reduced
maintenance cost.
Use unleaded fuel only because it produces
fewer engine and spark plug deposits and
extends the life of the exhaust system. Never
use stale or contaminated gasoline or an
oil/gasoline mixture.
Avoid getting dirt, dust or water in the fuel tank.
POTENTIAL HAZARD
Improper care when refueling.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
Fuel can spill, which can cause a fire and
severe injury.
Fuel expands when it heats up. If the fuel
tank is overfilled, fuel could spill out due to
heat from the engine.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
Do not overfill the fuel tank. Be careful not
to spill fuel, especially on the engine or
exhaust pipe. Wipe up any spilled fuel
immediately. Be sure the fuel tank cap is
closed securely.
Do not refuel right after the engine has
been running and is still very hot.
