FUEL REQUIREMENTS
Choosing the right fuel
The engine is designed to use low sulfur number 1–D or 2–D Diesel fuel
only. At temperatures below 20°F (-7°C), number 1–D or winter blend
number 2–D fuel is recommended. (SeeCold weather operationin the
Drivingchapter of this supplement.) Diesel fuel containing no more
than 5% of biodiesel may be used. Biodiesel fuel is a product derived
from renewable fuel sources such as vegetable oil, animal fat and cooking
oil.
Do not use home heating oil or any diesel fuel not intended for
highway use. Red dye is used to identify fuels intended for
agricultural and non-highway use. Damage to the fuel injection
system, engine and exhaust catalyst can occur if an improper fuel
is used. Do not add gasoline, gasohol or alcohol to diesel fuel.
This practice creates a serious fire hazard and engine
performance problems.
