Field experience has indicated significant dif-
ferences in fuel quality: volatility, composition,
additives, etc., among gasolines offered for sale
in the United States and Canada. Fuels contain-
ing up to and including 10

Ξ ethanol or other

oxygenates with up to 2.8

Ξ oxygen by weight,

that is, 15

Ξ MTBE or 3Ξ methanol plus an

equivalent amount of co-solvent, will not void
the applicable warranties with respect to
defects in materials or workmanship.

The use of poor-quality fuels may result in
driveability, starting and stalling problems

especially under certain environmental condi-
tions such as high ambient temperature and
high altitude.
Should you encounter driveability problems
which you suspect could be related to the fuel
you are using, we recommend that you respond
by switching to a recognized high-quality brand
such as gasoline that is advertised as Top Tier
Detergent Gasoline.
Failure to comply with these recommendations
may also result in unscheduled maintenance.
