Fuel requirements
Only use premium unleaded fuel:
\4The octane number (posted at the
pump) must be 91 min. It is an average
of both the Research (R) octane num-
ber and the Motor (M) octane number:
(R+M) / 2). This is also known as the
ANTI-KNOCK INDEX.
Unleaded gasoline containing oxygenates
such as ethanol, IPA, IBA and TBA can be
used provided the ratio of any one of these
oxygenates to gasoline does not
exceed 10%; MTBE not to exceed 15%.
The ratio of methanol to gasoline must not
exceed 3% plus additional cosolvents.
Using mixtures of ethanol and methanol is
not allowed. Gasohol, which contains 10%
ethanol and 90% unleaded gasoline, can be
used.
These blends must also meet all other fuel
requirements, such as resistance to spark
knock, boiling range, vapor pressure, etc.Fuels for diesel engines Fuel requirements
Only use commercially available vehicular
ULTRA-LOW SULFUR HIGHWAY DIESEL
FUEL (15 ppm SULFUR MAXIMUM).
DaimlerChrysler USA now approves the
use of B5 bio diesel (standard diesel with a
maximum of up to 5% Bio diesel content)
in the Sprinter CRD diesel engine.
Information on diesel quality can normally
be found on the fuel pump.
!
CAUTION
The following may lead to increased
wear or engine damage:
\4Using gasoline that does not meet
the specifications mentioned above
\4The use of non-approved special
additives
!
CAUTION
Marine diesel fuel, bio diesel fuel, heat-
ing oil or the like must not be used.
Do not blend diesel fuel with marine
diesel fuel, bio diesel fuel or heating oil.
The use of such non-approved fuels or
blending diesel fuel may result in mal-
function or cause engine damage.
Damage or malfunctions resulting from
poor fuel quality or from blending spe-
cific fuel additives are not covered by
the Sprinter warranty.
!
CAUTION
As bio diesel can be refined from a vari-
ety of raw materials resulting in widely
varying properties, the only approved
bio diesel content is one that meets
ASTM D6751 specification. It must also
have the necessary oxidation stability
(min. 6h, proved with EN 14112 meth-
od) to prevent damages to the system
from deposits and/or corrosion.
If the B5 Bio diesel blend is not suffi-
ciently labeled to clearly indicate that it
meets the above standards, do not use
it.
