Over   40 autom  obile  manu factu rers  arou nd   the  world
have  issu ed and  end orsed   consistent  gasoline   specifica-
tions  (the  World  Wide  Fuel  Charter,   WWFC)  to  define
fuel  prop erties necessary   to deliver  enhanced   emissions,
engine  perform ance,  and durability   for you r vehicle.  The
manu factu rer recom mend s the use  of gasolines  that  meet
the  WWFC specifications   if they  are  available.
Gasoline/Oxygenate Blends
Some  fuel  suppliers   blend  unlead ed  gasoline  with   oxy-
genates  such  as 10% ethanol,  MTBE, and  ETBE. Oxygen-
ates are  requ ired in  som e areas of the  country  during  the
winter   months   to  red uce  carbon   monoxid e  emissions.
Fuels  blend ed  with   these   oxygenates   may  be  used   in
you r vehicle.
Reformulated Gasoline
Many  areas   of  the  country   requ ire  the  use   of  cleaner
burning  gasoline  referred  to as  “Reform ulated  Gasoline”.

these  blen ds  may  resu lt in  startin  g and  driveab  ility
prob lem s and  may  damage  critical  fuel  system   com-
ponents.
Reform ulated  gasolines  contain  oxygenates,   and are  spe-
cifically  blend ed  to   red uce  vehicle  emissions   and   im-
prove  air  quality.
The manu factu rer supports   the use  of reform ulated  gaso-
lines.  Prop erly blend ed  reform ulated  gasolines  will  pro-
vid e excellent  perform ance  and  durability  of  engine  and
fuel  system  components.
Problem s   that   resu lt   from   using    methanol/  gasoline
blend s are not  the resp onsibility  of the  manu factu rer and
