Gasand Oil
The fuel tank is located under the hood and has a capacity of

counterclockwise. Use only clean, fresh (no more than 30 days
old), unleaded gasoline. Do not overfill the tank.
For California models equipped with a tethered, ratcheting cap,
STOP filling tank once fuel is seen inside the filler neck. This
ensures that a proper expansion volume is created. Do NOT top
