and obtain a fresh sample. Any amount of water/
moisture in the fuel mixture will change the
chemical properties of the mixture. The accuracy
of the J-44175-A Fuel Composition Tester can be
affected by any form of moisture that can be held
in suspension by the ethanol.
A portion of the second fuel sample is poured
from the beaker into the tester's fuel test ports.
The tester's funnel/bowl does not have to be
completely filled to perform an accurate test.
Twenty (20) milliliters of fuel is sufficient to
perform this test. (see figure 9). The fuel can enter
the test cell through either of the two fuel test
ports. A good indication that you have enough fuel
in the tester is when the fuel is at least at the top
of each fuel test port.
If the Red Fuel Diagnostic LED is illuminated,
or the frequency measurement is above 160 Hz,
refer to "J-44175-A frequency measures above
160 Hz, and/or the red LED is on" in the appendix.
If the Green Fuel Diagnostic LED is illuminated,
please refer to the AC Frequency Hz reading on
the DMM. If the frequency measurement is above
160 Hz, refer to "J-44175-A frequency measures
above 160 Hz, and/or the red LED is on" in the
appendix.
If the ethanol blended "E85" fuel sample
measures more than 91% ethanol (higher than
141 Hz), add fresh, regular gasoline to the
vehicle's fuel tank to reduce the total ethanol
percentage to 85% or less. If retesting still shows
the ethanol percentage to be above 85% (higher
than 135 Hz), continue adding fresh, regular
gasoline until the ethanol content is 85% or
less. If the fuel tank is full and regular gasoline
needs to be added, some fuel will have to be
drained from the tank.
