The AmericanAutomobile

Manufacturers Association (AAMA)

issued a fuel specificationto

provide informationonhigh quality

fuels that optimize the performance

of your vehicle. We recommend the

use of gasolines that meet the

AAMA specificationif they are

available.
It should not be necessary to add

any aftermarket products to your

fuel tank if you continue to use a

highĆquality fuel. They could cause

damage to the fuel system that may

not be covered by your warranty.

Cleaner air

Ford approves the use of gasolines

to improve air quality, including

reformulated gasolines that contain

oxygenates up to 10% ethanol or

15% MTBE.
Do not use gasolines containing

methanol, which can damage

critical fuel system components.

Damage resulting from the use of

methanol may not be covered by

your warranty.
