STARTING AND OPERATING
Problem s that resu lt from using methanol/ gasoline or
E85 Ethanol blend s are not the resp onsibility of the
manu factu rer. While MTBE is an oxygenate made from
Methanol, it does not have the negative effects of Metha-
nol.
It is even more important to look for gasolines withou t
MMT in Canad a, becau se MMT can be used at levels
higher than those allow ed in the United States.
MMT is prohibited in Federal and California reform u-
lated gasolines.
MMT IN GASOLINE
MATERIALS ADDED TO FUEL
MMT is a manganese containing metallic additive that is
blend ed into som e gasoline to increase the octane nu m-
ber. Gasolines blend ed with MMT offer no perform ance
advantage beyond gasolines of the sam e octane nu mber
withou t MMT. Gasolines blend ed with MMT have show n
to red uce spark plug life and red uce emission system
perform ance in som e vehicles. The manu factu rer recom -
mend s using gasolines withou t MMT. Since the MMT
content of gasoline may not be ind icated on the pump,
you shou ld ask you r gasoline retailer whether or not
his/ her gasoline contains MMT.
All gasoline sold in the United States is requ ired to
contain effective detergent additives. Use of additional
detergents or other additives is not need ed und er norm al
cond itions and would resu lt in additional cost. Therefore
you shou ld not have to add anything to the fuel.
