Fuel Oxidation Stability — Must Use Fuel
Within Six Months Of Manufacture
Biodiesel fuel has poor oxidation stability which can
result in long term storage problems. Fuel produced to
approved ASTM standards, if stored properly, provides
for protection against fuel oxidation for up to six
months.
Fuel Water Separation — Must Use
Mopar®/Cummins® Approved Fuel
Filter Elements
You must use Mopar®/Cummins® approved fuel filter
elements in both your engine mounted filter and frame
mounted filter.
Biodiesel fuel has a natural affinity to water and water
accelerates microbial growth. Your Mopar®/Cummins®
filtration system is designed to provide adequate fuel
water separation capabilities.
Biodiesel Fuel Properties — Low
Ambient Temperatures
Biodiesel fuel may gel or solidify at low ambient tem-
peratures, which may pose problems for both storage
and operation. Precautions can be necessary at low
ambient temperatures, such as storing the fuel in a
heated building or a heated storage tank, or using cold
temperature additives.
Fuel In Oil Dilution — Must Adhere To
Required Oil Change Interval
Fuel dilution of lubricating oil has been observed with
the use of biodiesel fuel. Fuel in oil must not exceed
5%. To ensure this limit is met your oil change interval
must be maintained to the following schedule:
•
Ram 3500/4500/5500 Chassis Cab — 12,500 Miles
(20,000 km) or 400 hours whichever comes first*
(*unless otherwise notified with a oil service message)
CAUTION!
•
Under no circumstances should oil change inter-
vals exceed 12,500 miles (20,000 km) or
400 hours whichever comes first if operation
occurs with greater than 5% biodiesel blends. Oil
change intervals should not exceed six months in
either case. Failure to comply with these Oil
Change requirements for vehicles operating on
biodiesel blends up to B20 may result in prema-
ture engine wear. Such wear is not covered by the
New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
•
B20 Biodiesel capable: The engine may suffer
severe damage if operated with concentrations of
biodiesel higher than 20%.
