6.1.3 Fuel Specifications

Follow the specifications for fuel quality to optimize system performance and prevent damage to the engine or fuel
components.
Use only ultra low sulphur diesel (ULSD) from a reputable supplier. For most year-round service, No. 2 ULSD fuel meeting
ASTM specification D975 Grade S15 will provide good performance.
If the vehicle is exposed to extreme cold (below -7°C [20°F]) or is required to operate at colder-than-normal conditions for
prolonged periods, use climatized No. 2 diesel fuel, or dilute the No. 2 ULSD fuel with 50% No. 1 ULSD fuel. This will
provide better protection from fuel gelling or wax-plugging of the fuel filters.
