CAUTION: (Continued)
Winter Fronts, Grille Covers or Obstructions:
Winter Fronts, grille covers or other add-on
equipment causing obstructions in front or
behind the fan should not be used on this
vehicle. If this causes the fan to eventually
break apart while it is rotating, the pieces can
cause severe injury to anyone nearby, such as
a service technician working on the engine,
and of course the pieces can severely damage
the vehicle.
Fuel
If your vehicle has a diesel engine, see Diesel Engine
Fuel on page 5-9.
For vehicles with gasoline engines, please read this.
Use of the recommended fuel is an important part of the
proper maintenance of your vehicle. To help keep the
engine clean and maintain optimum vehicle
performance, we recommend the use of gasoline
advertised as TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline.
Gasoline Octane
Use regular unleaded gasoline with a posted octane
rating of 87 or higher. If the octane rating is less than 87,
you might notice an audible knocking noise when you
drive, commonly referred to as spark knock. If this
occurs, use a gasoline rated at 87 octane or higher as
soon as possible. If you are using gasoline rated at
87 octane or higher and you hear heavy knocking, the
engine needs service.
Gasoline Specifications
At a minimum, gasoline should meet ASTM specification
D 4814 in the United States or CAN/CGSB-3.5 or 3.511
in Canada. Some gasolines contain an octane-enhancing
additive called methylcyclopentadienyl manganese
tricarbonyl (MMT). We recommend against the use of
gasolines containing MMT. See Additives on page 5-8 for
additional information.
