Gasolines for clean air Fuels in certain areas of the country are required to contain oxygenates to improve air quality. Common oxygenates are ethanol or grain alcohol (blended at no more than 10%), methanol or wood alcohol (blended at no more than 5% with cosolvents and additives), and MTBE or methyl tertiary butyl ether (blended at no more than 15%). Reformulated gasoline is also required in certain areas of the U.S. These fuels are designed to further reduce emissions from your vehicle. Generally, you should not experience difficulties operating your vehicle on fuels containing oxygenates. We encourage you to use these fuels.
