Recommended fuel:
UNLEADED GASOLINE ONLY
Fuel tank capacity:
4.5 L (1.19 US gal) (0.99 Imp.gal)

cC
Use only unleaded gasoline. The use
of leaded gasoline will cause severe
damage to internal engine parts,
such as the valves and piston rings,
as well as to the exhaust system.
Your Yamaha engine has been designed
to use regular unleaded gasoline with a
pump octane number [(R+M)/2] of 86
or higher, or a research octane number
of 91 or higher. If knocking (or pinging)
occurs, use a gasoline of a different
brand or premium unleaded fuel. Use
of unleaded fuel will extend spark plug
life and reduce maintenance costs.
