FUEL REQUIREMENTS
1.3L Turbo Engine
T
his engine is designed to
meet all emissions
requirements, and provide
satisfactory fuel economy
and performance, when
using high-quality unleaded
“regular” gasoline having an
octane rating of 87, as specified by the (R+M)/2
method.
The use of a 91 or higher octane “premium”
gasoline will allow these engines to operate to
optimal performance. This increase in performance
is most noticeable in hot weather or other heavier
load conditions, such as while towing.
While
operating on gasoline with the required
octane number, hearing a light knocking
sound from the engine is not a cause for
concern. However, if the engine is heard
making a heavy knocking sound, see your
dealer immediately. Use of gasoline with a lower
than recommended octane number can cause
engine failure and may void or not be covered by
the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
Poor quality gasoline can cause problems
such as hard starting, stalling, and hesita-
tions. If you experience these symptoms, try
another brand of gasoline before considering
service for the vehicle.
