Filling the Fuel Tank
For best results, use clean, fresh, lead-free petrol with
an octane rating of 87 or higher. To ensure freshness,
purchase only the quantity of petrol that you expect to
use in 30 days. Using unleaded petrol results in fewer
combustion deposits and longer engine life. You may
use leaded petrol if unleaded petrol is not available.
