If you plan on driving in another country outside the U.S. or Canada,
unleaded fuel may be hard to find.
Do not use leaded gasoline. If you use
even one tankful, your emission controls won’t work
well or at all. With
continuous use, spark plugs can get fouled, the exhaust system can
corrode, and your engine oil can deteriorate quickly. Your vehicle’s
oxygen sensor will be damaged. All of that means costly repairs that
wouldn’t be covered by your warranty.
To check on fuel availability, ask an auto club, or contact a major oil
company that does business in the country where you’ll be driving.
You can also write us at the following address for advice. Just tell us
where you’re going and give your Vehicle Identification Numbe\
r (VIN).

FUEL ECONOMY
Your fuel economy (miles per gallon or liters per 100 kilometers) can vary
depending on how your Cadillac is driven. Several vehicles like yours
have been driven through a standard test and their actual fuel econ\
omy
was recorded. These readings were adjusted and printed on the fuel
economy window sticker which was attached
to your new Cadillac when it
was delivered and in the Gas Mileage Guide which is available from your
dealership.
The fuel economy estimates are based on results of tests required by the
U. S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). These tests are used to
certify that vehicles meet the Federal emissions and fuel economy
standards. Cadillac tests prototypes of new vehicles and submits the
results to the EPA. The EPA then confirms the accuracy of
the figures
provided by Cadillac. The vehicles are driven by a professional driver
under controlled laboratory conditions, on an instrument similar \
to
a
treadmill. These procedures ensure that each vehicle is tested under
identical conditions.

the cap inside the fuel

clicking noise.

can get one
for you. If you get the wrong type, it may not fit and
your he1 tank and emissions system might be damaged.

NOTICE:
.. - , .., .. . **:. 7 ' . ..._ ^ . ,
Don't let anyone tell you that underinflation or overinflation is
all right. It's not. If your tires don't have enough air
(underinflation) you can get:
Too much flexing.,
Too much heat
Tire overloading
0 Badwear
Bad handling
0 Bad fuel economy.
If your tires have too much air (overinflation), you can ger:
Unusual wear
Bad handling
Rough ride
0 Needless damage from road hazards.
How to Check
Use a good quality pocket-type gage to check tire
pressure. Simply looking at the tires will not tell
you the pressure,
especially
if you have radial tires -- which may look properly' inflated even
if they're underinflated.
If your tires have valve caps, be sure to put them back on. They help
prevent leaks by keeping out dirt and moisture.
When to Check Check your tires once a month or more.
The Eldorado tire pressures are:
0 Front - 28 psi (190 Pa)
Rear - 26 psi (180 kPa)
