standards, some areas of the United
States and Canada use oxygenated
fuels to help reduce emissions.
If you use an oxygenated fuel, be
sure it is unleaded and meets the
minimum octane rating requirement.
Before using an oxygenated fuel,
try to confirm the fuel's contents.
Some states/provinces require this
information to be posted on the
pump.
The following are the EPA-approved
percentages of oxygenates:
ETHANOL (ethyl or grain alcohol).
You may use gasoline containing up
to 10% ethanol by volume. Gasoline
containing ethanol may be marketed
under the name "Gasohol."
MTBE (Methyl Tertiary Butyl
Ether). You may use gasoline
containing up to 15% MTBE by
volume.
METHANOL (methyl or wood
alcohol). Your vehicle was not
designed to use fuel that contains
methanol. Methanol can corrode
metal parts in the fuel system, and
also damage plastic and rubber
components. This damage would
not
be covere
d by your warranties.
If you notice any undesirable
operating symptoms, try another
service station or switch to another
brand of gasoline.
Fuel system damage or performance
problems resulting from the use of
an oxygenated fuel containing
more than the percentages of
oxygenates given above are not
covered under warranty.
Regularly maintaining your
vehicle is the best way to protect
your investment. Proper
maintenance is essential to your
safety and the safety of your
passengers. It will also reward
you with more economical,
trouble-free driving and help
reduce air pollution.
