When you do switch fuel types it is recommended that:

• you do not switch when the fuel gauge indicates less

than 1/4 full

• you do not add less than 5 gallons (19 Liters) when

refueling

• you operate the vehicle immediately after refueling for

a period of at least 5 minutes

Observing these precautions will avoid possible hard
starting and/or significant deterioration in driveability
during warm up.

NOTE:

• When the ambient temperature is above 90° F (32° C),

you may experience hard starting and rough idle
following start up even if the above recommendations
are followed.

• Some additives used in regular gasoline are not fully

compatible with E-85 and may form deposits in your
engine. To eliminate driveability issues that may be
caused by these deposits, a supplemental gasoline
additive, such as MOPAR

௡ Injector Cleanup or

Techron may be used.

Selection Of Engine Oil For Flexible Fuel Vehicles
(E-85) and Gasoline Vehicles

FFV vehicles operated on E-85 require specially formu-
lated engine oils. These special requirements are included
in MOPAR

௡ engine oils, and in equivalent oils meeting

Chrysler Specification MS-6395. The manufacturer re-
quires engine oils that are API Certified and meet the
requirements of Material Standard MS-6395. MS-6395
contains additional requirements, developed during ex-
tensive fleet testing, to provide additional protection to
Chrysler Group LLC engines. Use MOPAR

௡ or an

equivalent oil meeting the specification MS-6395.
