Fuel Recommendations
Precautions and recomendations for
selecting and using the right diesel fuel.
WARNING
The use of diesel fuel that has been
mixed with other fuels may cause an
explosion. DO NOT mix gasoline, alco-
hol, or gasohol with diesel fuel. Make
sure you know your fuel source and
use the recommended diesel fuel as
indicated in this section of the manual.
Failure to comply may result in death,
personal injury, equipment or property
damage.
CAUTION
Dirt or water in the fuel system can
cause severe damage to both the fuel
pump and the fuel injectors. Due to the
precise tolerances of diesel injection
systems, it is extremely important that
the fuel be kept clean and free of dirt
or water. Know your fuel source and
make sure all steps are taken for dis-
pensing or using clean fuel in your ve-
hicle. Failure to comply may result in
equipment or property damage.
CAUTION
Unapproved fuel can reduce economy
or possibly damage fuel system com-
ponents. Unapproved fuels typically do
not have enough lubricity elements in
the fuel to properly lubricate the fuel
injection system. Be sure you follow
the fuel recommendations as indicated
in this section of the manual. Failure to
comply may result in equipment or
property damage.
CAUTION
Using diesel fuels blended with lubri-
cants may cause damage to your ex-
haust aftertreatment system. Service
intervals for aftertreatment systems
will be reduced. DO NOT use diesel
fuel blended with lubricating oil in en-
gines equipped with an aftertreatment
system. Failure to comply may result
in equipment or property damage.
CAUTION
DO NOT use high-sulfur diesel fuel as
it will damage the exhaust aftertreat-
ment system. Also, the engine will not
meet emission regulations. Use only
ultra-low-sulfur diesel (ULSD) fuel.
Failure to comply may result in equip-
ment or property damage.
