Additives

To provide cleaner air, all gasolines in the United States

are now required to contain additives that help prevent

engine and fuel system deposits from forming, allowing

the emission control system to work properly. In most

cases, you should not have to add anything to the fuel.

However, some gasolines contain only the minimum

amount of additive required to meet U.S. Environmental

Protection Agency regulations. To help keep fuel injectors

and intake valves clean, or if your vehicle experiences

problems due to dirty injectors or valves, look for gasoline

that is advertised as TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline. Also,

your dealer/retailer has additives that will help correct and

prevent most deposit-related problems.

Gasolines containing oxygenates, such as ethers and

ethanol, and reformulated gasolines might be available in

your area. We recommend that you use these gasolines,

if they comply with the speciﬁcations described earlier.

However, E85 (85% ethanol) and other fuels containing

more than 10% ethanol must not be used in vehicles that

were not designed for those fuels.

Notice: Your vehicle was not designed for fuel that

contains methanol. Do not use fuel containing

methanol. It can corrode metal parts in the fuel

system and also damage plastic and rubber parts.

That damage would not be covered under your

warranty.

Some gasolines that are not reformulated for low

emissions can contain an octane-enhancing additive

called methylcyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl

(MMT); ask the attendant where you buy gasoline

whether the fuel contains MMT. We recommend against

the use of such gasolines. Fuels containing MMT can

reduce the life of spark plugs and the performance

of the emission control system could be affected.

The malfunction indicator lamp might turn on. If this

occurs, return to your dealer/retailer for service.

Fuel E85 (85% Ethanol)

The 8th digit of the Vehicle Identiﬁcation Number (VIN)

shows the code letter or number that identiﬁes your

vehicle’s engine. The VIN is at the top left of the

instrument panel. See Vehicle Identiﬁcation Number

(VIN) on page 5-98.

If your vehicle has the 3.9L V6 engine (VIN Code W only),

you can use either regular unleaded gasoline or ethanol

fuel containing up to 85% ethanol (E85); also see Fuel on

page 5-5. In all other engines, use only the unleaded

gasoline described under Gasoline Octane on page 5-5.

Only vehicles that have the 3.9L V6 engine (VIN Code W)

can use 85% ethanol fuel (E85). We encourage the use

of E85 in vehicles that are designed to use it. The ethanol

in E85 is a “renewable” fuel, meaning it is made from

renewable sources such as corn and other crops.
