Gasohol (alcohol-blended fuels)
There are two types of gasohol: gaso-
hol containing ethanol and that con-
taining methanol. Gasohol containing
ethanol can be used if the ethanol con-
tent does not exceed 10% (E0, E5, E10
are all acceptable). Gasohol containing
methanol is not recommended by
Yamaha because it can cause damage
to the fuel system or vehicle perfor-
mance problems.
NOTICE
Use only unleaded gasoline. The use
of leaded gasoline will cause severe
damage to internal engine parts,
such as the valves and piston rings,
as well as to the exhaust system.
