ALL CHEVROLET DEALERS

General Motors has asked gasoline suppliers to market and advertise gasolines that keep port fuel injectors free of deposits and help
remove deposits formed on port fuel injectors.

The National and Regional brands of gasoline listed have been advertised to have detergent properties compatible with port fuel
injectors. While these advertised claims are not based on data generated by General Motors, we have no reason to doubt the truth of the
claims.

This list is not intended to be all inclusive since more suppliers will be improving their fuels. Please be alert to local advertisements so
your list will be as comprehensive as possible.
