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: This 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 the vehicle

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 the

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

instrument panel. See Vehicle Identiﬁcation Number

(VIN) on page 5-121.

If the vehicle has the 5.3L V8 engine (Code 0), the

5.3L V8 engine (Code 3), or the 6.2L V8 engine

(Code 2), you can use either unleaded gasoline or

ethanol fuel containing up to 85% ethanol (E85). See

Fuel on page 5-6. In all other engines, use only the

unleaded gasoline described under Gasoline Octane

on page 5-6.

Only vehicles that have the 5.3L V8 engine (Code 0), the

5.3L V8 engine (Code 3), or the 6.2L V8 engine (Code 2)

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.

Many service stations will not have an 85% ethanol

fuel (E85) pump available. The U.S. Department

of Energy has an alternative fuels website

(www.eere.energy.gov/afdc/infrastructure/locator.html)

that can help you ﬁnd E85 fuel. Those stations that do

have E85 should have a label indicating ethanol content.

Do not use the fuel if the ethanol content is greater

than 85%.
