GASOLINES
CONTAINING
ALCOHOL
If you decide to use a gasoline containing
alcohol (gasohol), be sure it's oc-
tane rating is at least as high as that recommended
by Honda. There are
two types of "gasohol":
one containing
ethanol, and the other containing
methanol.
Do not use gasohol that contains more than 10% ethanol. Do
not use gasoline containing
methanol (methyl or wood alcohol) that does
not also contain cosolvents
and corrosion
inhibitors
for methanol.
Never
use gasoline containing
more than 5% methanol, even if it has cosolvents
and corrosion inhibitors..
NOTE:
l
Fuel system damage or engine performance
problems resulting from the
use of fuels that contain alcohol is not covered under the warranty.
Honda cannot
endorse
the use of fuels containing
methanol
since
evidence of their suitability
is as yet incomplete.
l
Before buying
fuel from an unfamiliar
station,
try to find out 'if the fuel
contains alcohol, if it does, confirm the type and percentage of alcohol
used. If you notice any undesirable
operating symptoms
while using a
gasoline that contains alcohol, or one that you think contains alcohol,
switch to a gasoline that you know does not contain alcohol.
