Fuel Filling
Methanol/unleaded fuel blends
FUEL FILLING
In some areas, it is possible to buy unleaded
fuel that is blended with up to 5% Methanol
(Methyl or wood alcohol) and cosolvents and
corrosion preventatives. Using these blends
can cause driveability problems and damage
the fuel system components. Their use may
also invalidate the vehicle warranty.
Gas station pumps are equipped with automatic
cut-off sensing to avoid fuel spillage. Fill the
tank SLOWLY until the filler nozzle
automatically cuts off the supply. DO NOT
attempt to fill the tank beyond this point or
spillage could result due to expansion of the
fuel.
WHEREVER POSSIBLE, AVOID USING FUEL
CONTAINING METHANOL!
The fuel filler neck will accept ONLY a narrow
filler nozzle of the type found on pumps that
deliver UNLEADED fuel. A flap lies across the
filler neck; insert the nozzle sufficiently to fully
open the flap before filling.
WARNING
Automotive fuels can cause serious injury and
even death if misused.
Filling difficulties
Methanol/unleaded fuel blends, even in small
amounts, can cause blindness and possible
death if swallowed. Additionally, take
precautions to prevent methanol from coming
into contact with the skin.
The fuel delivery rate of gas station pumps can
vary significantly. This, coupled with the fact
that modern pumps are equipped with a sensor
which automatically cuts off the supply as soon
as turbulence is detected in the upper part of
the vehicle’s filler neck, could result in isolated
fuel filling problems.
EMPTY FUEL TANK
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
DO NOT run the fuel tank dry!

Running the fuel tank dry could create
an engine misfire capable of damaging
the catalytic converter. DO NOT RUN
THE FUEL TANK DRY!
