Fuel
FUEL TYPE
Your new vehicle must use only un-
leaded gasoline.
To help prevent gas station mix- ups, your
Toyota has a new smaller fuel tank open-
ing. The special nozzle on pumps with
unleaded fuel will fit it, but the larger
standard nozzle on pumps with leaded gas
will not.
At a minimum,
the gasoline you use
should
meet
of
ASTM
D4814 in the U.S.A. and CGSB 3.5- M93
in Canada.
NOTICE
Do not use leaded gasoline. Use of
leaded gasoline will cause the three-
way catalytic converter to lose its ef-
fectiveness and the emission control
system to function improperly. Also,
this can increase maintenance costs.
OCTANE NUMBER
Select Octane Rating 87 (Research Oc-
tane Number 91) or higher.
Use of unleaded fuel with an octane num-
ber or rating lower than stated above will
cause persistent heavy knocking. If se-
vere, this will lead to engine damage.

Questions and answers
My 99 Toyota Corolla ac smells can't find the problem was told there is no ac filter
If there is no AC filter in a 1999 Toyota Corolla, a bad smell from the AC could be caused by mold or bacteria buildup in the air conditioning system, especially in the evaporator or air ducts. Recirculating air (using the recirculate setting) for long periods can worsen this by trapping moisture and contaminants inside the system.
