Check to see if there is a label inside your fuel filler door indicating that it is a FFV - flexible fuel vehicle, or check your VIN. If the 8th "character" of the VIN is a "K" , that indicates that you have a FFV engine and can use up to 85 % ethanol (E - 85) Otherwise you use regular unleaded fuel which can contain up to 10 % ethanol as long as it meets the 87 octane requirement.
