STARTING AND OPERATING
Spark Knock
Reformulated Gasoline
Light spark knock at low engine speed s is not harm ful to
you r engine. However, continu ed heavy spark knock at
high speed s can cause damage and immediate service is
requ ired .
Many areas of the country requ ire the use of cleaner
burning gasoline referred to as “Reform ulated Gasoline ”.
Reform ulated gasolines contain oxygenates, and are spe-
cifically blend ed to red uce vehicle emissions and im-
prove air quality.
Poor quality gasoline can cause problem s such as hard
starting, stalling and hesitations. If you experience these
sym ptom s, try another brand of “regu lar” gasoline be-
fore consid ering service for the vehicle.
The manu factu rer supports the use of reform ulated gaso-
lines. Prop erly blend ed reform ulated gasolines will pro-
vid e excellent perform ance and durability of engine and
fuel system components.
Over 40 autom obile manu factu rers arou nd the world
have issu ed and end orsed consistent gasoline specifica-
tions (the World Wide Fuel Charter, WWFC) to define
fuel prop erties necessary to deliver enhanced emissions,
engine perform ance, and durability for you r vehicle. The
manu factu rer recom mend s the use of gasolines that meet
the WWFC specifications if they are available.
Gasoline/Oxygenate Blends
Some fuel suppliers blend unlead ed gasoline with oxy-
genates such as 10% ethanol, MTBE, and ETBE. Oxygen-
ates are requ ired in som e areas of the country during the
winter months to red uce carbon monoxid e emissions.
Fuels blend ed with these oxygenates may be used in
you r vehicle.
