California Fuel

If your vehicle is certiﬁed to meet California Emissions

Standards, it is designed to operate on fuels that

meet California speciﬁcations. See the underhood

emission control label. If this fuel is not available

in states adopting California emissions standards,

your vehicle will operate satisfactorily on fuels meeting

federal speciﬁcations, but emission control system

performance may be affected. The malfunction

indicator lamp may turn on and your vehicle may fail a

smog-check test. See Malfunction Indicator Lamp

on page 3-41. If this occurs, return to your authorized

GM dealer for diagnosis. If it is determined that the

condition is caused by the type of fuel used, repairs may

not be covered by your warranty.

Additives

To provide cleaner air, all gasolines in the United States

are now required to contain additives that will help

prevent engine and fuel system deposits from forming,

allowing your emission control system to work

properly. In most cases, you should not have to add

anything to your 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 GM dealer

has additives that will help correct and prevent most

deposit-related problems.

Gasolines containing oxygenates, such as ethers and

ethanol, and reformulated gasolines may be available in

your area. General Motors recommends 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.
