BRAKE SYSTEM

If power assist is lost for any reason (for example,

repeated brake applications with the engine off),

the brakes will still function. However, you will

experience a substantial increase in braking effort

to stop the vehicle.

If either the front or rear hydraulic system loses

normal braking capability, the remaining system

will still function with some loss of overall braking

effectiveness. This will be evident by increased

pedal travel during application, greater pedal force

required to slow or stop, and activation of the

Brake Warning Light and/or the ABS Warning Light

during brake use.

FUEL REQUIREMENTS— GASOLINE ENGINE

While operating on gasoline with the required

octane number, hearing a light knocking sound

from the engine is not a cause for concern.

However, if the engine is heard making a heavy

knocking sound, see a dealer immediately. Use of

gasoline with a lower than recommended octane

number can cause engine failure and may void or

not be covered by the New Vehicle Limited

Warranty.
Poor quality gasoline can cause problems such as

hard starting, stalling, and hesitations. If you

experience these symptoms, try another brand of

gasoline before considering service for the vehicle.

ASOLINE

Many areas of the country require the use of

cleaner-burning gasoline referred to as

“reformulated gasoline”. Reformulated gasoline

contains oxygenates and are specifically blended

to reduce vehicle emissions and improve air

quality.
The use of reformulated gasoline is recommended.

Properly blended reformulated gasoline will

provide improved performance and durability of

engine and fuel system components.

Besides using unleaded gasoline with the proper

octane rating, gasolines that contain detergents,

corrosion and stability additives are

recommended. Using gasolines that have these

additives will help improve fuel economy, reduce

emissions, and maintain vehicle performance.

Designated TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline

contains a higher level of detergents to

further aide in minimizing engine and

fuel system deposits. When available,

the usage of TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline is

recommended. Visit www.toptiergas.com for a list

of TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline Retailers.
Indiscriminate use of fuel system cleaning agents

should be avoided. Many of these materials

intended for gum and varnish removal may contain

active solvents or similar ingredients. These can

harm fuel system gasket and diaphragm materials.

octane. Gasoline blended with MMT provides no

performance advantage beyond gasoline of the

same octane number without MMT. Gasoline

blended with MMT reduces spark plug life and

reduces emissions system performance in some

vehicles. The manufacturer recommends that

gasoline without MMT be used in your vehicle. The

MMT content of gasoline may not be indicated on

the gasoline pump; therefore, you should ask your

gasoline retailer whether the gasoline contains

MMT. MMT is prohibited in Federal and California

FUEL REQUIREMENTS – DIESEL ENGINE

Use good quality diesel fuel from a reputable

supplier in your vehicle. 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.
For most year-round service, Number 2 diesel fuel

meeting ASTM (formerly known as the American

Society for Testing and Materials) 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 conditions for prolonged

periods, use climatized Number 2 diesel fuel or

dilute the Number 2 diesel fuel with 50% Number

1 diesel fuel. This will provide better protection

from fuel gelling or wax-plugging of the fuel filters.

Diesel fuel is seldom completely free of water. To

prevent fuel system trouble, drain the

accumulated water from the fuel/water separator

using the fuel/water separator drain provided on

both fuel filters. If you buy good quality fuel and

follow the cold weather advice above, fuel

conditioners should not be required in your vehicle.

If available in your area, a high cetane “premium”

diesel fuel may offer improved cold-starting and

warm-up performance.

PECIFICATIONS

The Cummins® Turbo Diesel engine has been

developed to take advantage of the high energy

content and generally lower cost Number 2 Ultra

Low Sulfur diesel fuel or Number 2 Ultra Low Sulfur

climatized diesel fuels. Experience has shown that

it also operates on Number 1 Ultra Low Sulfur

diesel fuels or other fuels within specification.

NOTE:



If you accidentally fill the fuel tank with gasoline

on your diesel vehicle, Do not start the vehicle.

If you restart your vehicle you risk damaging the

engine and fuel system. Please call an autho

-

rized dealer for service.



A maximum blend of 20% biodiesel meeting

ASTM specification D-7467 may be used with

your Cummins® diesel engine. (Models config

operating on biodiesel blends up to B20 will result

in premature engine wear. Such wear is not

covered by the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
Biodiesel is a fuel produced from renewable

resources typically derived from animal fat,

rapeseed oil (Rapeseed Methyl Ester (RME) base),

or soybean oil (Soy Methyl Ester (SME or SOME)

base). Biodiesel fuel has inherent limitations which

require that you understand and adhere to the

following requirements if you use blends of

biodiesel greater then 5% but not greater than

20% (B6-B20). There are no unique restrictions for

the use of B5. Use of blends greater than 20% is

not approved. Use of blends greater than 20% can

result in engine damage. Such damage is not

covered by the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.

Fuel Quality — Must Comply With ASTM

Standards

The quality of biodiesel fuel may vary widely. Only

fuel produced by a BQ9000 supplier to the

following specifications may be blended to meet

biodiesel blend (B6–B20) fuel meeting ASTM

specification D-7467:



Petrodiesel fuel meeting ASTM specification

D-975 and biodiesel fuel (B100) meeting ASTM

specification D-6751.

Fuel Oxidation Stability — Must Use Fuel

Within Six Months Of Manufacture

Biodiesel fuel has poor oxidation stability which

can result in long term storage problems. Fuel

produced to approved ASTM standards, if stored

properly, provides for protection against fuel

oxidation for up to six months.

Fuel Water Separation — Must Use

Mopar®/Cummins® Approved Fuel Filter

Elements

You must use Mopar®/Cummins® approved fuel

filter elements in both your engine mounted filter

and frame mounted filter.
Biodiesel fuel has a natural affinity to water and

water accelerates microbial growth. Your Mopar®/

Cummins® filtration system is designed to provide

adequate fuel water separation capabilities.

Biodiesel Fuel Properties — Low Ambient

Temperatures

Biodiesel fuel may gel or solidify at low ambient

temperatures, which may pose problems for both

storage and operation. Precautions can be

necessary at low ambient temperatures, such as

storing the fuel in a heated building or a heated

storage tank, or using cold temperature additives.

Fuel In Oil Dilution — Must Adhere To

Required Oil Change Interval

Fuel dilution of lubricating oil has been observed

with the use of biodiesel fuel. Fuel in oil must not

exceed 5%. To ensure this limit is met your oil

change interval must be maintained to the

following schedule:


