FUEL REQUIREMENTS — GASOLINE ENGINE
While operating on gasoline with the required
octane number, hearing a light knocking sound
from the engine is not a cause for concern.
However, if the engine is heard making a heavy
knocking sound, see an authorized dealer
immediately. Use of gasoline with an octane
number lower than recommended octane can
cause engine failure and may void the New

Poor quality gasoline can cause problems such
as hard starting, stalling, and hesitations. If you
experience these symptoms, try another brand
of gasoline before considering service for the
vehicle.

emissions regulations and provide
excellent fuel economy and
performance when using high-quality

recommended. Properly blended reformulated
gasoline will provide improved performance
and durability of engine and fuel system
components.

additives will help improve fuel economy,
reduce emissions, and maintain vehicle
performance.

Gasoline contains a higher level of
detergents to further aide in
minimizing engine and fuel system
deposits. When available, the usage of TOP
