TECHNICAL AND CONSUMER INFORMATION

Oxygenated Fuels

Some conventional gasolines are being blended with alcohol or an

ether compound. These gasolines are collectively referred to as

oxygenated fuels. To meet clean air 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) 10% by volume

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) 15% by volume

You may use gasoline containing up to 15% MTBE by

volume.

METHANOL —- (methyl or wood alcohol) 5% by volume

You may use gasoline containing up to 5% methanol

by volume, as long as it also contains cosolvents and

corrosion inhibitors to protect the fuel system.

Gasoline containing more than 5% methanol by

volume may cause starting and/or performance

problems. It may also damage metal, rubber, and

plastic parts of your fuel system.

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 mentioned above

are not covered under the Distributor’s Limited Warranty (page 61).
