Be sure you have sufficient knowledge,
experience, the proper replacement parts
and tools before you attempt any vehicle
maintenance task.
Be sure to use the proper nuts, bolts and
other fasteners. “English” and “metric”
fasteners can be easily confused.
If
you use
the wrong fasteners, parts can later break
or fall off. You could be hurt.

Adding Equipment
to
the Outside
of
Your
Vehicle
Things
you
might add to the outside of your vehicle can
affect the airflow around it. This may cause wind noise
and affect windshield washer performance. Check with
your dealer before adding equipment
to
the outside of
your vehicle.
Fuel (Gasoline Engine)
If
your vehicle has
a
diesel engine,
see
“Diesel Fuel
Requirements and Fuel System” in the Diesel Engine
Supplement. For vehicles with gasoline engines,
please read this.
Use regular unleaded gasoline rated at
87
octane or
higher. At a minimum, it should meet specifications
ASTM D4814 in the United States and CGSB
3.5-M93
in Canada. Improved gasoline specifications have
been developed by the American Automobile
Manufacturers Association (AAMA) for better
vehicle performance and engine protection. Gasolines
meeting
the
AAMA specification could provide
improved driveability and emission control system
protection compared
to
other gasolines.
Be sure the posted octane is
at
least
87.
If the octane is
less
than
87,
you may get a heavy knocking noise when
you drive. If it’s bad enough, it can damage your engine.
If you’re using fuel rated at
87
octane or higher and you
hear heavy knocking, your engine needs service. But
don’t worry if
you
hear
a
little pinging noise when
you’re accelerating
or
driving up a hill. That’s normal,
and
you
don’t have
to
buy a higher octane fuel to get rid
of pinging. It’s
the
heavy, constant knock that means
you have a problem.
