Driving and Operating
also known as Ultra Low Sulfur
Diesel. Contact a fuel supplier or
fueling station with any questions.
Diesel Fuel Grades
For best results use No. 2-D diesel
fuel year-round because it is
blended for seasonal temperature
differences, both above and below
freezing conditions. No. 1-D diesel
also meeting ASTM International
D975 fuel can be used in very cold
temperatures (below 18 °C or
0 °F); however, it will reduce power
and fuel economy. Avoid using No.
1-D diesel fuel in warm or hot
climates. It can result in stalling,
poor starting when the engine is hot,
and damage to the fuel injection
system.
Premium Diesel Fuel
Premium Diesel Fuel (FQP-1A)
corresponds to the Engine
Manufacturers Association (EMA)
Recommended Guideline. It may
provide less noise, better starting,
and better vehicle performance, but
is not required.
Biodiesel Blends
Retail pumps dispensing blends
containing up to 5% biodiesel (B5)
are not required to be labeled with
the concentration of biodiesel.
Blends up to B5 must meet ASTM
D975 (Grades No. 2-D or No. 1-D
S15 Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel). When
refueling with a biodiesel blend
above B5, one of the following
labels should appear on the
dispenser:
Blends containing more than 5%
and up to 20% biodiesel must meet
ASTM specification D7467
(Biodiesel blend, B6 - B20) and are
labeled with an orange or blue
