2. Fuel level
Your Yamaha engine has been designed to
use premium unleaded gasoline with a
pump octane number ([R+M]/2) of 90 or
higher, or research octane number of 95 or
higher. If knocking or pinging occurs, use a
different brand of gasoline. Unleaded fuel
will give you longer spark plug life and
reduced maintenance cost. If unleaded
gasoline is not available, then leaded pre-
mium gasoline can be used.
Gasohol
There are two types of gasohol; gasohol
containing ethanol and that containing
methanol. Gasohol containing ethanol can
be used if ethanol content does not exceed
10%. Gasohol containing methanol is not
recommended by Yamaha because it may
cause fuel system damage or vehicle per-
formance problems.
