FUEL REQUIREMENTS
The engine is designed to use low sulfur number 1D or 2D Diesel fuel only. At temperatures below 20°F (-7°C), number 1D or winter blend number 2D fuel is recommended. Diesel fuel containing no more than 5% of bio-diesel may be used. Bio-diesel fuel is a product derived from renewable fuel sources such as vegetable oil, animal fat and cooking oil. Do not use home heating oil or any diesel fuel not intended for highway use. Red dye is used to identify fuels intended for agricultural and non-highway use. Damage to the fuel injection system, engine and exhaust catalyst can occur if an improper fuel is used. Do not add gasoline, gasohol or alcohol to diesel fuel. This practice creates a serious fire hazard and engine performance problems.
