GENERAL INFORMATION
Beginning this model year, Chrysler began produc-
ing AA-Body vehicles designed to operate on a mix-
ture of gasoline and methanol. These automobiles are
referred to as Flexible Fuel vehicles. Flexible fuel vehicles can operate on a mixture of
up to 85 percent methanol, 15 percent unleaded gas-
oline. These vehicles also operate on mixtures con-
taining a lower percentage of methanol or just pure
unleaded gasoline. In many cases, the procedures for servicing flexible
fuel components is identical to gasoline only compo-
nents. Refer to the particular Service Procedure in
this section. If the service procedure for flexible fuel
component differs from a gasoline only component,
the title of each service procedure identifies the ap-
plication.
SERVICE PRECAUTIONS FOR FLEXIBLE FUEL
VEHICLES
Methanol is more toxic than gasoline. Always re-
lease fuel system pressure before servicing fuel sys-
tem components and wear methanol resistant gloves
and eye protection. Avoid breathing methanol vapors or ingesting
methanol. Headaches, dizziness and even uncon-
sciousness could result from breathing these vapors.
Serious injury, blindness and even death could result
from ingesting methanol. Methanol vapors are extremely flammable and can
travel along the ground. Service vehicles in well ven-
tilated areas and avoid ignition sources. Never
smoke while servicing the vehicle. Do not allow methanol to contact skin. Prolonged
contact with methanol can cause dry skin or an al-
lergic skin reaction. Also, prolonged contact could re-
sult in absorption through the skin.
IDENTIFYING FLEXIBLE FUEL COMPONENTS
Flexible Fuel vehicles have unique methanol com-
patible fuel system components. Chrysler identifies
methanol compatible components that could be phys-
ically interchanged with gasoline only parts by color-
ing them green or applying a green label or tag to
them. Even though they may appear physically iden-
tical, components for gasoline only vehicles must not
be used on flexible fuel vehicles.
FLEXIBLE FUEL COMPONENTS
Flexible fuel AA-body vehicles uses many unique
fuel system components. The unique parts are green
in appearance or have a green tag or label attached
to them. While components used on gasoline only ve-
hicles may look similar or identical, they cannot be
used on flexible fuel vehicles. When servicing a com-
ponent, always use an original equipment or equiva-
lent flexible fuel replacement. The fuel system of flexible fuel AA-body vehicles
have the following unique components.
² Fuel pump module
² Fuel level sensor
² Fuel gauge (gauge cluster).
² Fuel tank
² Fuel pressure regulator (including O-rings)
² Fuel rail
² Fuel injectors (including O-rings)
² Fuel tubes
² Fuel filter
² EVAP canister
² Fuel filler cap
² Fuel filler tube
² Pressure relief/Rollover valve
² All fuel system and emission system hoses and
tubes
