Fuel and Refueling FUEL QUALITY Note: Do not add after-market fuel additive products to your fuel tank. We recommend that you use only high quality fuel without after-market additives or other engine treatments. Note: Your warranty will not cover any vehicle damage, loss of vehicle performance or repairs to your vehicle caused by the use of fuel not recommended. Use only unleaded gasoline or unleaded gasoline blended with a maximum of 85% ethanol (E-85) in your flex fuel vehicle (FFV). Do not use Fuels containing more than 85% ethanol or E-100 fuel. Fuels containing methanol. Fuels containing metallic based additives, including manganese-based compounds. Fuels containing the octane booster additive, methylcyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl (MMT). Prohibited by law, you cannot use leaded fuel.

It is best not to alternate repeatedly between gasoline and E85. If you do switch fuels, it is recommended that you add as much fuel as possible-at least half a tank. Do not add less than 5.0 gal (18.9 L)when refueling. You should drive the vehicle immediately after refueling for at least 5.0 (8 km)to allow the vehicle to adapt to the change in ethanol concentration. The recommendation if you exclusively use E85 fuel, is to fill the fuel tank with regular unleaded gasoline at each scheduled oil change. • • Diesel Engine Refer to the diesel supplement for information regarding diesel fuel recommendations and requirements of your diesel-powered truck.
