an octane ratingnolower thanthat
recommended forunleaded gasoline.
. Ifan oxygenate-blend, otherthan
methanol blendisused, itshould
contain nomore than10%oxygenate.
(MTBE may,however, beadded upto
15%.)

. Ifamethanol blendisused, itshould
contain nomore than5%methanol
(methyl alcohol, woodalcohol) .It
should alsocontain asuitable amount
of appropriate cosolventsandcorro-
sion inhibitors. Ifnot properly formu-
lated withappropriate cosolventsand
corrosion inhibitors, suchmethanol
blends maycause fuelsystem damage
and/or vehicle performance problems.
At this time, sufficient dataisnot
available toensure thatallmethanol
blends aresuitable foruse inNISSAN vehicles.
If any driveability problemssuchasengine
stalling anddifficult hot-starting areexperienced
after using oxygenate-blend fuels,immediately
change toanon-oxygenate fuelorafuel with a
low blend ofMTBE.
T ake care nottospill gasoline during
refueling. Gasolinecontaining oxygenates
can cause paintdamage.

NISSAN doesnotrecommend theuse ofany
aftermarket fueladditives (forexample, fuel
injector cleaner, octanebooster, intakevalve
deposit removers, etc.)which aresold commer-
cially .Many ofthese additives intendedforgum,
varnish ordeposit removal maycontain active
solvent orsimilar ingredients thatcanbeharmful

Using unleaded gasolinewithanoctane
rating lowerthanrecommended cancause
persistent, heavyªspark knockº.(Spark
knock isametallic rappingnoise.)If
severe, thiscanlead toengine damage. If
you detect apersistent heavysparkknock
even when using gasoline ofthe stated
octane rating,orifyou hear steady spark

NISSAN isnot responsible.
Incorrect ignitiontimingwillresult inspark

It is essential tochoose thecorrect grade,
quality ,and viscosity engineoiltoensure
satisfactory enginelifeand performance, see
ªCapacities andrecommended fluids/lubricantsº
(P .9-2) .NISSAN recommends theuse ofan
energy conserving oilinorder toimprove fuel
economy .
Select onlyengine oilsthat meet theAmerican
Petroleum Institute(API)certification orInterna-
tional Lubricant Standardization andApproval

NISSAN doesnotrecommend theuse ofoil
additives. Theuseofan oiladditive isnot
necessary whentheproper oiltype isused and

Oil which maycontain foreignmatterorhas
been previously usedshould notbeused.
Oil viscosity
GUID-BCEE5 26D-D9C0-45DD-A66C-608BC52B B421
The engine oilviscosity orthickness changes
with temperature. Becauseofthis, itis important
to select theengine oilviscosity basedonthe
temperatures atwhich thevehicle willbe
operated beforethenext oilchange. Choosing
an oilviscosity otherthanthatrecommended
could cause serious enginedamage.
