W e r
ecommend refuelling with super 95 oc-
tane petrol (91 AKI). If not available, normal 91
octane petrol (87 AKI) (with a slight power
loss) may be used.
Super unleaded petrol, 95 octanes at

You should use super 95 octane petrol (91
AKI) at least.
If super is not available, if necessary, use nor-

use moderate engine speeds and a light
throttle. Refuel with super as soon as possi-
ble.

mal 91 octane petrol (87 AKI). In this case only
