Fuels and Blendstocks not meeting the above specifications are prohibited.

Note: All fuels are REQUIRED to meet ASTM standards at minimum. For best engine performance, please refer to Table 2 Recommended Fuel Specifications.
Note: Detroit does not warrant damage caused by the use of unapproved fuels. Failure to use biodiesel fuel that meets the industry standards may result in warranty implications. For more information on warranty, please see the Warranty Implications section of this publication.

Detroit does not warrant damage caused by use of fuels outside Detroit’s listed specifications, even where local, regional, national, or industry requirements regarding fuels or biodiesel content conflict with Detroit’s listed specifications. Where local, regional, national, or industry requirements regarding fuels or biodiesel content conflict with the specifications listed herein, Detroit recommends using such fuels for the minimum duration possible, flushing fuel systems when in-specification fuel becomes available, and checking fuel filters and other fuel system components for deposits.

In our efforts to encourage the usage of domestically produced alternative fuels that benefit the environment, all of Detroit’s engines are compatible with B5 biodiesel.
