Long Term Storage
Instructions
it is important to prevent gum deposits from forming in
essential fuel system parts, such as the carburetor,
fuel filter, fuel hose or tank during storage. Also,
experience indicates that alcohol-blended
fuels (called
gasohol, ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture,
which leads to separation and formation of acids
during storage. Acidic fuel can damage the fuel
system of an engine while in storage.
To avoid engine problems, the fuel system should be
emptied before storage of 30 days or longer. Follow
these instructions:
