section in this manual.
ADD GASOLINE
• Fill fuel tank to bottom of filler neck. Do
not overfill.
Use fresh, clean, regular
unleaded gasoline with a minimum of
87 octane. (Use of leaded gasoline will
increase carbon and lead oxide deposits
and reduce valve life). Do not mix oil with
gasoline. Purchase fuel in quantities that
can be used within 30 days to ensure fuel
freshness,
_,CAUTION: Wipe offanyspitled oil or fuel.
Do not store, spill or use gasoline near an
open flame.

peratures below32°F(0°C), use fresh, clean
winter grade gasoline to help ensure good
cold weather starting.
CAUTION:
Alcohol blended fuels (called
gasohol or using ethanol or methanol) can
attract moisture which leads to separation
andformation ofacids during storage. Acidic
gas can damagethe fuelsystem of an engine
while in storage, To avoid engine problems,
the fuel system should be emptied before
storage of 30 days or longer. Drain the gas
tank, start the engine and let it run until the
fuel lines and carburetor are empty. Use

tions for additional information. Never use
