REFUELING - 6.7L DIESEL

operates poorly after a fuel fill could be

that you purchase diesel fuel from a
reputable fuel station.
Use only clean, approved containers that
will prevent the entry of dirt or water
whenever you store diesel fuel.
Do not store diesel fuel in a galvanized

zinc damages the fuel injectors. Engine
damage caused may not be covered by
the vehicle Warranty.
