Fuel Requirements

If your vehicle is E-85 compatible, it will operate on

unleaded gasoline with any octane rating, or solely E-85

fuel, or any mixture of these fuels.
For best results, avoid fueling patterns alternating
between E-85 and unleaded gasoline.
When switching fuel types:

• Add 5 gallons (19 Liters) or more when refueling.
• Drive the vehicle immediately after refueling for at

least 5 miles (8 km).

Observing these precautions will avoid possible hard

starting and/or driveability problems during warm up.

NOTE:

• Use seasonally adjusted E-85 fuel (ASTM D5798). With

non-seasonally adjusted E-85 fuel, hard starting and

rough idle following start up may be experienced even

if the above recommendations are followed, especially

when the ambient temperature is below 32°F (0°C).

• 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.
