32°F (0°C); 45 cetane minimum below 32°F
(0°C) and with less than 15 ppm of sulfur must be
used.
A cetane number below 42 can cause poor start-
ing, excessive white smoke, and poor idling. A
cetane number above 55 can increase smoke at
peak torque conditions.
If two types of diesel fuel are available, use sum-
mer or winter fuel properly according to the fol-
lowing temperature conditions.● Above 32°F (0°C)...Summer type diesel
fuel.
