Ram Trucks 2013 Chassis Cab - Diesel Supplement - Manual (Page 123)

NOTE: The engine may run rough until the air is forced
from all the fuel lines.
WARNING!
Do not use alcohol or gasoline as a fuel blending
agent. They can be unstable under certain conditions
and be hazardous or explosive when mixed with
diesel fuel.
CAUTION!
Due to lack of lubricants in alcohol or gasoline, the
use of these fuels can cause damage to the fuel
system.
NOTE:
• A maximum blend of 20% biodiesel, meeting ASTM
specification D-6751 may be used with your Cum-
mins® diesel engine. Use of biodiesel mixture in excess
of 20% can negatively impact the fuel filter’s ability to
separate water from the fuel, resulting in high pressure
fuel system corrosion or damage.
• Ethanol blends are not recommended or approved for
use with your Cummins® diesel engine.
• In addition, commercially available fuel additives are
not necessary for the proper operation of your Cum-
mins® diesel engine.
