FLUID RECOMMENDATIONS
Fluid capacities:
Please refer to your Contour Owner's Guide.
Fuel recommendation:
91 Octane or higher
Regular fuel can be used in the SVT Contour without damaging
engine components. The knock sensor will adjust the engine
calibration to accomodate regular unleaded fuel. This may result in
a degradation of engine performance.
SYNTHETIC FLUIDS
There are no synthetic fluids or break-in fluids in your SVT Contour
when it leaves the factory. Note that SVT does not make
recommendations about the use of synthetic oils in your vehicle. Should
you decide to use synthetic engine oil, we recommend you allow 4 000 to
6 000 miles (6 500 km to 9 600 km) in order to assure complete break-in
before switching to synthetic oil.
MAINTENANCE AND BREAK-IN
For complete maintenance and break-in procedure information, please
refer to your Contour Owner's Guide.
