Operation In Foreign Countries - Chevrolet Monte Carlo 1971 Owner's Manual

Operation in Foreign Countries
If you plan to operate your Monte
Carlo outside the continental limits
of the United States or Canada,
there is a possibility that the best
fuels available are so low in anti-
knock quality that excessive knock-
ing and serious engine damage may
result from their use. To minimize
this possibility, write to Chevrolet
Motor Division, Service Depart-
ment, Detroit, Michigan 48202,
giving:
• The compression ratio and cubic
inch displacement of the engine
(see page 79 or obtain from your
Dealer) .
• The vehicle identification num-
ber ( on plate on instrument
panel ahead of the steering wheel
and visible through the wind-
shield, or from registration slip
or title).
• The country or countries in
which you plan to travel.
You will be furnished details of
adjustments or modifications which
70
should be made to your engine at
your Chevrolet Dealership prior to
your departure. Failure to make
the necessary changes to your car
and subsequent operation under
conditions of continuous or exces-
sive knocking constitutes misuse of
the engine for which the Chevrolet
Division is not responsible under
the terms of the Chevrolet New
Vehicle Warranty. After arriving in
a foreign country, determine and
use the best fuels available.
