OPERATION

GAS AND OIL QUALITY
To operate the engine, we recommend using Viper® brand 2-cycle
oil (P/N 16890) to ensure that the engine operates correctly
throughout the life of the engine. Viper® brand two-cycle oil
has fuel stabilizer additive which helps to prevent gasoline from
oxidizing and gumming up the carburetor when the unit is not
in use for long periods of time. Use unleaded regular gas only.
It is best to use premium gasoline that has no ethanol content.
NOTE: Viper® oil can be purchased from our web site at www.
getearthquake.com.
