Jeep Wrangler: FUEL REQUIREMENTS – DIESEL ENGINE / Diesel Fuel Specifications
This diesel engine has been developed to take
advantage of the high energy content and
generally lower cost No. 2 Ultra Low Sulfur
diesel fuel or No. 2 Ultra Low Sulfur climatized
diesel fuels.
NOTE:
- If you accidentally fill the fuel tank with gasoline
on your diesel vehicle, do not start the
engine. Damage to the engine and fuel
system could occur. Please call an authorized
dealer for service.
- A maximum blend of 5% biodiesel meeting
ASTM specification D-975 may be used with
your diesel engine without any adjustments
to regular service schedules.
- Commercially available fuel additives are not
necessary for the proper operation of your
diesel engine.
- No. 1 Ultra Low Sulfur diesel fuel should only
be used where extended arctic conditions
(-10°F or -23°C) exist.
Federal law requires 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...
A maximum blend of 5% biodiesel meeting
ASTM specification D975 is recommended for
use with your diesel engine. If frequent
operation with Biodiesel blends that are
between 6% and 20% (B6–B20) is desired, the
maintenance schedule is subject to shorter
intervals...
Other information:
Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) is considered a very
stable product with a long shelf life. If DEF is kept
in temperatures between 10° and 90°F (-12°
and 32°C), it will last a minimum of one year.
DEF is subject to freezing at the lowest
temperatures...
Your vehicle has been built with an improved
engine coolant (OAT coolant conforming to MS.90032) that allows extended
maintenance
intervals. This engine coolant (antifreeze) can
be used up to 10 years or 150,000 miles
(240,000 km) before replacement...
