Fuel Selection 6.7L Turbo

Diesel

Use good quality diesel fuel

from a reputable supplier in

your vehicle. Federal law re-

quires that you must fuel

this vehicle with Ultra Low

Sulfur Highway Diesel fuel

(15 ppm Sulfur maximum)

and prohibits the use of Low

Sulfur Highway Diesel fuel

(500 ppm Sulfur maximum)

to avoid damage to the

emissions control system.

For most year-round service,

No. 2 diesel fuel meeting

ASTM specification D-975

Grade S15 will provide good

performance. If the vehicle

is exposed to extreme cold

(below 20°F or -7°C), or is

required to operate at

colder-than-normal condi-

tions for prolonged periods,

use climatized No. 2 diesel

fuel or dilute the No. 2 die-

sel fuel with 50% No. 1 die-

sel fuel. This will provide

better protection from fuel

gelling or wax-plugging of

the fuel filters. This vehicle

is fully compatible with bio-

diesel blends up to 5% bio-

diesel meeting ASTM speci-

fication D-975.
