FUEL RECOMMENDATIONS
Use unleaded gasoline with a pump octane rating of
86
or higher.
These engines are certified to operate on unleaded gasoline. Unleaded
gasoline produces fewer engine and spark plug deposits and extends exhaust
system life.
Never use stale or contaminated gasoline or an oil/gasoline mixture. Avoid
getting dirt or water in the fuel tank.
Occasionally you may hear a light "spark knock or "pinging" (metallic rapping
noise) while operating under heavy loads. This is no cause for concern.
If spark knock
or
pinging occurs at a steady engine speed, under normal loa
change brands of gasoline. If spark knock or pinging persists, see an
authorized Honda servicing dealer.
Running the engine with persistent spark knock or pinging can cause engine
damage.
Running the engine with persistent spark knock or pinging is misuse, and the
Distributor's Limited Warranty does not cover parts damaged by abuse.
