2018 Acura NSX Owners Manual - Refueling



Refueling

Use the proper fuel and refueling procedure to ensure the best performance and safety of your vehicle.

Fuel Information

Unleaded premium gasoline of 93 octane maximizes the engine's performance.

Unleaded premium gasoline of 91 octane or higher is recommended.

Use of gasoline with octane less than 91 can lead to engine damage.

Acura recommends TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline where available.

Do NOT use gasoline containing more than 15% ethanol.

Do NOT use gasoline containing methanol.

Do NOT use gasoline containing MMT.

NOTICE
We recommend quality gasoline containing detergent additives that help prevent fuel system and engine deposits. In addition, in order to maintain good performance, fuel economy, and emissions control, we strongly recommend the use of gasoline that does NOT contain harmful manganese-based fuel additives such as MMT, if such gasoline is available.

How to Refuel

The fuel fill door is located at the left rear of the vehicle. Park next to the service pump that is most accessible. This vehicle does not use a fuel-fill cap.

  1. Turn off the power system.
  2. Press the fuel fill door release button.
  3. Insert the filler nozzle fully. When the tank is full, the fuel nozzle clicks off automatically.
  4. Wait about five seconds. Remove the filler nozzle and close the fuel fill door.
WARNING

Gasoline is highly flammable and explosive. You can be burned or seriously injured when handling fuel.

Stop the engine, and keep heat, sparks, and flame away.

Handle fuel only outdoors.
