Fuel for Diesel Engines
Some states and provinces have
restrictions on the purchase of
diesel fuel for light-duty vehicles and
require you to buy permits or pay
special taxes. Some of these
restrictions apply only to residents,
and others apply to both residents
and visitors. These restrictions can
change. To learn the current
restrictions in any state or province,
contact your auto club, the police,
or other officials.
Notice: Diesel fuel or fuel
additives not recommended in
this manual could damage the
fuel system, fuel
‐ operated heater
(FOH) (Van models only), and
engine. Your warranty would not
cover this damage. And:
. Diesel fuel that has been
mixed with engine oil or
automatic transmission fluid
could damage the engine
and emission controls.
. We do not test aftermarket
diesel fuel additives. Some
additives, particularly those
which contain alcohol or
water emulsifiers, could
damage the fuel system.
If you believe that unique
circumstances call for a fuel
additive to be used, consult
your dealer for advice.
. If you ever run out of diesel
fuel, it can be difficult to
restart the engine. To avoid
this, never let the tank get
empty.
If gasoline is ever accidentally
added to the fuel tank, to avoid
severe engine damage, do not
run the engine until the fuel tank
can be drained.
Some conditions, such as dirty fuel,
may decrease fuel filter life and a
change filter message may
come on.
If you run out of fuel, Running Out of
Fuel on page 9 ‑ 32 tells you how to
restart the engine.
