Fuel System Cautions

CAUTION!

Follow these guidelines to maintain your vehicle’s
performance:
The use of leaded gas is prohibited by Federal law.

Using leaded gasoline can impair engine perfor-
mance, or damage the emission control system.

An out-of-tune engine, or certain fuel or ignition

malfunctions, can cause the catalytic converter to
overheat. If you notice a pungent burning odor or
some light smoke, your engine may be out-of-tune
or malfunctioning and may require immediate
service. Contact your authorized dealer for service
assistance.

CAUTION! (Continued)

The use of fuel additives, which are now being

sold as octane enhancers, is not recommended.
Most of these products contain high concentra-
tions of methanol. Fuel system damage or vehicle
performance problems resulting from the use of
such fuels or additives are not the responsibility of
the manufacturer.

NOTE:

Intentional tampering with emissions control

systems can result in civil penalties being assessed
against you.
