FEATURES Fuel Resistor This snowmobile is equipped with a feature that allows the engine controller to select the proper operating software based on the type of fuel being used. See pages 59-60 for fuel information and recommendations. The ECU fuel designation connector must have the "NON-ETHANOL 160 OHM" resistor installed when using non-ethanol gasoline. When using ethanol, MTBE, or other forms of oxygenated gasoline, the "10% ETHANOL 24 OHM" resistor must be connected. Whenever in doubt of your fuel purchase, use the "10% ETHANOL 24 OHM" resistor as a safeguard. The resistor is installed into the wiring harness on the left side of the snowmobile just above the top of the oil bottle (see photo). NOTICE: Engine damage may occur if ethanol fuel is used while the non-ethanol fuel resistor is installed. The check engine light may also display in this condition as this could cause detonation. 10% ETHANOL 24 OHM ETHANOL, MTBE, OR OTHER OXYGENATED GASOLINE (Factory Delivery) ANY FUEL WITH ETHANOL or LESS THAN 91 OCTANE (87 Octane Minimum) NON-ETHANOL GASOLINE 91+ OCTANE (Maximum Performance) NON-ETHANOL 160 OHM Resistor 29
