FUEL AND OIL
GASOLINE RECOMMENDATION
Suzuki highly recommends that you use alcohol-free unleaded
gasoline with a minimum pump octane rating of 87 (R/2+M/2
method) or 91 (Research method). However, blends of
unleaded gasoline and alcohol with equivalent octane content
may be used.
Allowable maximum blend of a single additive (not combination):
5% Methanol, 10% Ethanol, 15% MTBE
If leaded gasoline is used, engine damage may result.
Use only unleaded gasoline.
ENGINE OIL
Use only oils that are rated SE, SF, SG, SH or SJ under the API
(American Petroleum Institute) classification system.
The viscosity rating should be SAE 10W-40.
If SAE 10W-40 motor oil is not available, select an alternative
according to the chart at right.
