Gasoline must be removed or treated to prevent gum
deposits from forming tn the tank, filter, hose, and
carburetor during storage. Also during storage, al-
cohol blended gasoline that uses ethanol or metha-
nol (sometimes called gasohol) attracts water. It acts
on the gasoline to form acids which damage the
englne.
®
To remove gasoline, run the engine untilthe tank is
empty and the engine stops. Then drain remaining
gasoline from carburetor by pressing upward on
bowl drain located on the bottom of carburetor (See
Fig, 37)_
O
tf you do not wantto remove gasoline, a fuel stabilizer
(such as Craftsman Fuel Stabilizer No_33500) may
be added to any gasoline left in the tank to minimize
gum deposits and acids., if the tank is almost empty,
mix stabilizer with fresh gasoline in a separate con-
tainer and add someto the tank ALWAYS FOLLOW
INSTRUCTIONS ON STABILIZER CONTAINER.
THEN RUN ENGINE AT LEAST 10 MINUTES AF-
TER STABILIZER IS ADDED TO ALLOW MIX-
TURE TO REACH CARBURETOR. STORE SNOW
