FOREWORD This Malaysian Standard was developed by the Technical Committee on Petroleum Fuels under the authority of the Industry Standards Committee on Petroleum and Gas. MS 118 consists of the following parts, under the general title Motor vehicle gasoline - Specification: Part 1: Leaded gasoline Part 2: Unleaded Euro 2M Part 3: Unleaded Euro 4M Part 4: Unleaded Euro 5 MS 118: Part 1:1996, Specification for motor vehicle gasoline: Part 1: Leaded gasoline (Third revision) had been withdrawn without replacement. During the development of this standard, it is noted that specifications as recommended by ASEAN Automotive Federation cannot be fully adopted at this point of time. Compliance with a Malaysian Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations. STANDARDS MALAYSIA 2015 - All rights reserved i
Motor vehicle gasoline - Specification - Part 3: Unleaded Euro 5 1 Scope This Malaysian Standard specifies the requirements for unleaded gasoline suitable for use in spark ignition engines for motor vehicles. The material is also known as petrol in the automobile industry. 2 Normative references The documents and publications referred to in this standard are listed in Annex A. 3 Grade The unleaded gasoline shall be graded into two categories, which are Unleaded Regular 95 (ULG 95) and Unleaded Premium 97 (ULG 97). 4 Composition and properties 4.1 The motor gasoline shall consist of volatile hydrocarbons free from visible moisture, suspended matter and sediment. It may contain small amounts of additives intended to improve some aspects of performance and dye for identification purposes. 4.2 The motor gasoline shall be coloured red for ULG 97 and yellow for ULG 95 (as regulated by the regulatory body). Colouring matter (dye) is added for safety reason, grade identification and quick visual check for possible contamination. 4.3 The motor gasoline shall comply with the requirements set out in Table 1 when tested by the methods indicated therein. 5 Sampling 5.1 Sampling from storage tanks Sampling of the material shall be carried out in accordance with the procedure described in MS 781. 5.2 Sampling from petrol pumps 5.2.1 Sampling cans Sampling cans (tin-plated) shall be of 5 L and 1 L capacity. Their construction shall comply with the appropriate safety requirements for cans that are to hold highly flammable material. STANDARDS MALAYSIA 2015 - All rights reserved 1
5.2.2 Preparation of cans A stock of cans shall be kept solely for the purpose of taking unleaded gasoline samples. Such cans shall be clearly identified and kept separately from cans not used for the purpose of taking samples of unleaded gasoline. New cans shall be rinsed with unleaded gasoline before being used to remove any residual traces of oil left during manufacturing operations and then allowed to dry. Before use, all cans shall be checked to ensure they are sound and free from leaks. A petroleum-resistant sealing washer in good condition shall be positioned in the cap. 5.2.3 Procedure From the pump nozzle, 5 L of unleaded gasoline shall be carefully drawn into the 5 L can using a clean dry funnel. Immediately afterwards, this sample shall be carefully decanted into the requisite number of 1 L cans using a funnel, filling the cans to approximately 95 % of their capacity (for safety reason). If more than 5 L are needed the operation should be repeated immediately. The screw caps shall be fully tightened immediately and the cans checked to ensure that there are no leaks. The sampling procedure shall not be carried out in direct sunlight, if at all possible. 5.2.4 Sampling for Reid vapour pressure In order to avoid escape of light components in the sample, the sampling container shall be cooled and maintained at 0 C during and after sampling. Gasoline copper corrositivity is sensitive to sunlight and the metal it comes in contact with. If testing of copper corrosion is required, it is recommended that the sample be collected in a dark glass bottle. 5.2.5 Labelling Full and legible information relating to the source of the sample shall be attached to the can in such a manner that it will not easily become detached subsequently. 2 STANDARDS MALAYSIA 2015 - All rights reserved

NOTES: 1. Other test methods as specified in Annex B for determining the properties may be used, provided that they have been demonstrated to give the same degree of accuracy as the test methods listed. In the event of a dispute, the test method listed in this table is to be the referee method. 2. The natural undye colour of petrol is typically yellow. However the use of dye is permitted when the natural colour of petrol is not yellow or other colouring is required.
6 Marking and labelling 6.1 Marking of pumps and containers The following information shall be clearly marked on each dispensing pump or container used for delivering the motor gasoline in sales transaction. a) the name, brand, or trademark if any, of the producer, supplier or marketer; b) the name of the motor gasoline; and c) any other information as required by government regulations. 6.2 Certification mark Each product, may by arrangement with a recognised certification body, be marked with the certification mark of that body, provided the product conforms to the requirements of this standard. 4 STANDARDS MALAYSIA 2015 - All rights reserved
