gasoline will cause severe damage to internal
engine parts, such as the valves and piston
rings, as well as to the exhaust system.If knocking (or pinging) occurs, use a gasoline of a
different brand. Use of unleaded fuel will extend
spark plug life and reduce maintenance costs.EBU18820Fuel cock The fuel cock supplies fuel from the tank to the car-
