For the Caterpillar® diesel, see the Caterpillar® Operation & Maintenance Manual for information concerning fuel usage.
Notice: Diesel fuel or fuel
additives not recommended in this manual could damage the fuel system and engine.
Your warranty would not cover this damage. And:
• Diesel fuel that has been mixed with engine oil or automatic transmission
fluid could damage the engine and emission controls. • We do not test aftermarket diesel fuel additives. Some additives, particularly
those which contain alcohol or water emulsifiers, could damage the fuel system. If
you believe that unique circumstances call for a fuel additive to be used, consult
your dealer/retailer for advice. • If you ever run out of diesel fuel, it can be difficult to restart the
engine. To avoid this, never let the tank get empty.
If you run out of fuel, Running Out of Fuel tells you how to restart the engine.
