Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine than this manual can. To order the proper service
manual,
see “Service Publications” in the Index.
You should keep a record with all parts receipts and list
the mileage and the date of any service work you
perform. See “Maintenance Record” in the Index.
1 NOTICE:
If you try to do your own service work without
knowing enough about it, your vehicle
could be
damaged.
Fuel
Use regular unleaded gasoline rated at 87 octane or
higher. It should meet specifications
ASTM D4814 in
the United States and
CGSB 3.5-92 in Canada. These
fuels should have the proper additives,
so you should not
have to add anything to the fuel.
In the United States and Canada, it’s easy to
be sure you
get the right kind of gasoline (unleaded). You’ll see
UNLEADED right
on the pump. And only unleaded
nozzles will
fit into your vehicle’s filler neck.
Be sure the posted octane
is at least 87. If the octane is
less than 87, you may get a heavy knocking noise when
you drive. If it’s bad enough, it can damage your engine.
If you’re using fuel rated at 87 octane or higher and
you still hear heavy knocking, your engine needs
service.
But don’t worry if you hear a little pinging
noise when you’re accelerating or driving
up a hill.
