Sulfur In Gasoline
If you live in the northeast United States, you r vehicle
may have been designed to meet California low emission
stand ard s with clean burning, low sulfur, California
gasoline. Gasoline sold outsid e of California is perm itted
to have higher sulfur levels which may affect the perfor-
mance of the vehicle’s catalytic converter. This may cause
the “Malfu nction Ind icator Light” to illuminate.
Materials Added To Fuel
All gasoline sold in the United States is requ ired to
contain effective detergent additives. Use of additional 5
detergents or other additives is not need ed und er norm al
cond itions.
Illumination of this light while operating on high sulfur
gasoline does not necessarily mean you r emission control
system is malfunctioning. The manu factu rer recom -
mend s that you try a different brand of unlead ed gaso-
line having lower sulfur to determ ine if the problem is
fuel related prior to retu rning you r vehicle to an autho-
rized dealer for service.
