Fuel Selection
6.7L Turbo Diesel Use good quality diesel fuel from a
reputable supplier in your vehicle.
Federal law requires that you must
fuel this vehicle with Ultra Low
Sulfur Highway Diesel fuel (15 ppm
Sulfur maximum) and prohibits the
use of Low Sulfur Highway Diesel
fuel (500 ppm Sulfur maximum) to
avoid damage to the emissions
control system. For most year-round
service, No. 2 diesel fuel meeting
ASTM specification D-975 Grade
S15 will provide good performance.
If the vehicle is exposed to extreme
cold (below 20°F or -7°C), or is
required to operate at colder-than-
normal conditions for prolonged
periods, use climatized No. 2 diesel
fuel or dilute the No. 2 diesel fuel
with 50% No. 1 diesel fuel. This will
provide better protection from fuel
gelling or wax-plugging of the fuel
filters. This vehicle is fully
compatible with biodiesel blends up
to 5% biodiesel meeting ASTM
specification D-975. Standard Rear
