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. 2500/3500 Shortbed -
