Replacement Parts

Many components in your Flexible Fuel Vehicle (FFV) are
designed to be compatible with ethanol. Always be sure
that your vehicle is serviced with correct ethanol com-
patible parts.

CAUTION!

Replacing fuel system components with non-ethanol
compatible components can damage your vehicle.

Maintenance

If you operate the vehicle using E-85 fuel, follow the
maintenance schedule section of this manual.

CAUTION!

Do not use ethanol mixture greater than 85% in your
vehicle. It will cause difficulty in cold starting and
may affect driveability.

ADDING FUEL

The fuel filler cap (gas cap) is located behind the fuel
filler door, on the left side of the vehicle. Open the fuel
door and remove the fuel cap by turning it counter-
clockwise. Once the cap is removed, the tether of the fuel
cap can be placed over the tab on the inside of the fuel
door. Hanging the cap will prevent unnecessary damage
to the fuel cap and exterior of the vehicle.
