.For vehicles that are not
FlexFuel, fuel labeled greater
than 15% ethanol by volume,
such as mid-level ethanol blends
(16–50% ethanol), E85,

methanol, methylal, ferrocene,
and aniline. These fuels can
corrode metal fuel system parts

methylcyclopentadienyl
manganese tricarbonyl (MMT),
which can damage the emissions
control system and spark plugs.

of less than the recommended
fuel. Using this fuel will lower
fuel economy and performance,
and may decrease the life of the
emissions catalyst.

country, seeProhibited Fuels 0298.
Fuel Additives

Fuel System Treatment Plus−Gasoline
will help keep your vehicle’s engine
fuel deposit free and performing
optimally.
