Do not use any fuel other than those
recommended because they could lead to
engine damage that may not be covered
by the vehicle Warranty.
Note:
Use of any fuel other than those
recommended can impair the emission
control system and cause a loss of vehicle
performance.
Do not use:
•
Diesel fuel.
•
Fuels containing kerosene or paraffin.
•
Fuels containing more than 85%
ethanol or E100 fuel.
•
Fuels containing methanol.
•
Fuels containing metallic-based
additives, including manganese-based
compounds.
•
Fuels containing the octane booster
additive, methylcyclopentadienyl
manganese tricarbonyl (MMT).
•
Leaded fuel (using leaded fuel is
prohibited by law).
The use of fuels with metallic compounds
such as methylcyclopentadienyl
manganese tricarbonyl (commonly known
as MMT), which is a manganese-based
fuel additive, will impair engine
performance and affect the emission
control system.
Do not be concerned if the engine
sometimes knocks lightly. However, if the
engine knocks heavily while using fuel with
the recommended octane rating, contact
an authorized dealer to prevent any engine
damage.
RUNNING OUT OF FUEL
Avoid running out of fuel. This may have
an adverse effect on powertrain
components.
If your vehicle runs out of fuel:
•
You may need to cycle the ignition from
Off
to
On
several times after refueling
to allow the fuel system to pump the
fuel from the fuel tank to the engine.
On restarting, cranking time will take a
few seconds longer than normal.
•
Normally, adding 1 gal (3.8 L) of fuel is
enough to restart the engine. If the
vehicle is out of fuel and on a steep
grade, more than 1 gal (3.8 L) may be
required.
•
The service engine soon indicator may
come on. For more information on the
service engine soon indicator, See
Audible Warnings and Indicators
(page 107).
For information on calculating DTE
(Distance to empty), See
Instrument
Cluster
(page 100).
Refilling With a Portable Fuel
Container
WARNINGS
Do not insert the nozzle of a fuel
container or an aftermarket funnel
into the fuel filler neck. This may
damage the fuel system filler neck or its
seal and cause fuel to run onto the ground.
Do not try to pry open or push open
the capless fuel system with foreign
objects. This could damage the fuel
system and its seal and cause injury to you
or others.
When refueling the vehicle fuel tank from
a fuel container, use the plastic funnel
included with your vehicle.
•
In SuperCab and SuperCrew vehicles,
the funnel is located under the second
row passenger side seat near the spare
tire toolbox.
•
On regular cab vehicles, the funnel is
located behind the passenger seat.
