Scope

This National Standard of Canada applies to four grades of gasoline to which no lead or phosphorus compounds have been added. They are intended for use in spark-ignition engines under a wide range of climatic conditions.

This standard is not intended to apply to the mixing of oxygenated gasolines and gasolines, either at the point of retail sale or after the point of retail sale.

Gasoline specified in this standard may contain limited concentrations of aliphatic ethers and alcohols.

Provincial, territorial, and federal regulations control some parameters included in this standard, and when such government regulations are more restrictive, they supersede the requirements in this standard.
