CAUTION:
●
Do not use leaded gasoline. Leaded
gasoline can seriously damage the
catalytic converter.
● Use only fresh gasoline (petrol) that
has been stored in clean containers.
Recommended gasoline:
Regular unleaded gasoline with
a minimum octane rating of
86 (Pump octane number) = (R+M)/2
90 (Research octane number)
Gasohol
There are two types of gasohol: gasohol
containing ethanol and that containing meth-
anol.
Gasohol containing ethanol can be used
if ethanol content does not exceed 10 % and
the fuel meets minimum octane ratings.
Gasohol containing methanol is not rec-
ommended by Yamaha because it can
cause fuel system damage or engine perfor-
mance problems.
