Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Gasolines for CIeaner Air
Your use of gasoline with deposit control additives will help prevent
deposits from forming in your engine and fuel system. That helps keep your
engine in
tune and your emission control system working properly. It’s good \
for your vehicle, and
you’ll be doing your part for cleaner air.
Many gasolines are now blended with oxygenates. General Motors
recommends that you use gasolines with these blending materials,
such as
MTBE and ethanol. By doing so, you can help clean the air, especially in
those parts
of the country that have high carbon monoxide levels.
In addition, some gasoline suppliers are now producing reformulated
gasolines.
These gasolines are specially designed to reduce vehicle
emissions. General Motors recommends that
you use reformulated gasoline.
By doing
so, you can help clean the air, especially in those parts of the
country that have high ozone levels.
You should
ask your service station operators if their gasolines contain
deposit control additives and oxygenates, and
if they have been
reformulated
to reduce vehicle emissions.
Fuels in Foreign Countries
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 Number (VIN).

“SH” or “SG” must be on the oil container, either by itself or combined
with other quality designations, such as “SH/CD,”
“SH, SG, CD,”
“SG/CD,” etc. These letters show American Petroleum Institute (API)
levels of quality.
SAE 5W-30
Energy Conserving I1
Oils with these words on the container will help you save fuel.
These three things are usually included
in a doughnut shaped logo (symbol)
on most containers. If you cannot find oils with the “starburst” symbol, you
should look for oils with the doughnut shaped symbol, containing the three
things noted above.
NOTICE:
If you use oils that do not have either the “starburst” symbol or
an API SH or SG designation, you can cause engine damage not
covered by your warranty.
GM Goodwrench@ oil (in Canada, GM Engine Oil) meets all the
requirements for your vehicle.
Engine Oil Additives
Don’t add anything to your oil. Your GM dealer is ready to advise if you
think something should be added.
