Yamaha Nuovo

Out of interest, what are other Nouvo Elegance drivers filling their tanks with? As above, I'm using 91 benzene, after being out off by some of the warnings in the manual re Gasohol. The sticker on my fuel tank says either 91 benzene or Gasohol 91 though.

I'm using the 91. I remember reading that sometimes the gasohol can cause starting problems, particularly if the bike isn't started daily. I do let mine sit two or three days sometimes, so heeded that advice. Vague and uncertain, but I'll stay with the benzene 91.

This is the manual for the latest model, but should suffice to cover previous ones adequately.

Fuel is 91. (Although I have heard they'll run on just about anything.) (Not that I'd try nam pla, or such)

Thanks for the service manual. Now what I need is a copy of the manual in Thai so I can show the mechanics what I mean.

just as a matter of interest I use gasohol 95 and I get 35k per litre.

Oh, and er, don't forget to put air in the tyres :)

If there is no sticker saying what you can put in it next to the filler cap, assume you can only use regular 91 benzine. Otherwise the pennies you save on fuel will be false economy when you need to get your carb rebuilt!

My tuppence worth: Esso 91 seems to be the best 'real' 91 benzine about. Not sure how they make the PTT one but my bike prefers the Esso; almost like a different bike. I suspect the PTT is padded out with non fossil ingredients...
