NOTE:
If you accidentally fill the fuel tank with gaso -
line 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 authorized dealer for service.
A maximum blend of 5% biodiesel meeting
ASTM specification D-975 may be used with
your Cummins diesel engine. (Chassis Cab
models not configured with B20 capability.)
A maximum blend of 20% biodiesel meeting
ASTM specification D-7467 may be used with
your Cummins diesel engine. (Pickup models
and Chassis Cab models configured with
B20 Capability.)
In addition, commercially available fuel addi -
tives are not necessary for the proper opera -
tion of your Cummins diesel engine.
However, if seasonably adjusted fuel is not
available and you are operating below 20°F
(-6°C), Mopar Premium Diesel Fuel Treat -
ment (or equivalent) may be beneficial to
avoid fuel gelling.
No. 1 Ultra Low Sulfur diesel fuel should only
be used where extended arctic conditions
(0°F or -18°C) exist.
Biodiesel Fuel Requirements
Pickup Models And Chassis Cab Models
Ordered With B20 Option
Your vehicle has been validated and approved
for the use of biodiesel in blends up to 20%
(B20) provided that you comply with the require -
ments outlined below. It is important that you
understand and comply with these require -
ments. Failure to comply with Oil Change
requirements for vehicles operating on
biodiesel blends up to B20 will result in prema -
ture 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 limita-
tions 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:
Pretrodiesel 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 capa-
bilities.

Engine Oil – 6.4L For best performance and maximum protection under all types of
operating conditions, the manufacturer only recommends full synthetic
engine oils that meet the American Petroleum Institute (API) categories of
SN. The manufacturer recommends the use of Pennzoil Ultra 0W-40 or
equivalent Mopar engine oil meeting the requirements of FCA Material
Standard MS-12633 for use in all operating temperatures.
Engine Oil Filter We recommend you use Mopar brand Engine Oil Filters.
Spark Plugs We recommend you use Mopar Spark Plugs.

Engine Oil In ambient temperatures above 0°F (-18°C), we recommend you use
10W-30 engine oil such as Mopar, Shell Rotella and Shell Rimula that
meets FCA Material Standard MS-10902 and the API CK-4 engine oil
category is required. Products meeting Cummins CES 20081 may also be
used. The identification of these engine oils is typically located on the
back of the oil container.
In ambient temperatures below 0°F (-18°C), we recommend you use
5W-40
synthetic engine oil such as Mopar, Shell Rotella and Shell Rimula
that meets FCA Material Standard MS-10902 and the API CK-4 engine oil
category is required.
Engine Oil Filter We recommend you use Mopar Engine Oil Filters.
Fuel Filters We recommend you use Mopar Fuel Filter. Must meet 3 micron rating
(engine mounted filter). Must meet 5 micron rating (chassis mounted
filter).
Using a fuel filter that does not meet the manufacturers filtration
and water separating requirements can severely impact fuel system life
and reliability.
Crankcase Ventilation Filter We recommend you use Mopar CCV Filter.
