fire can occur.

etc.) must be the same as original parts, otherwise fire can

STORAGE
Engines stored over 30 days need special attention.
1. To prevent gum from forming in fuel system or on
essential carburetor parts:
a) if fuel tank contains oxygenated or reformulated
gasoline (gasoline blended with an alcohol or an
ether), run engine until it stops from lack of fuel, or
b) if fuel tank contains gasoline, either run engine until
it stops from lack of fuel, or add a gasoline additive to
the gas in the tank. (See parts list. Single - use
pouches of gas additive are available from your ser
vice dealer.) If you use a gas additive, run the engine
for several minutes to circulate the additive through
the carburetor. Then, engine and fuel can be stored
up to 24 months.
2. While engine is still warm, change oil.
3. Remove spark plug and pour about 1/2 oz. (15 ml) of
engine oil into cylinder. Replace spark plug and crank
slowly to distribute oil.
4. Clean engine of surface debris, chaff or grass.
5. Store in a clean, dry area. Do not store in same area as a
stove, furnace, water heater, or other appliance that
uses a pilot light or has a device that can create a spark.
WARNING
DO NOT tip engine during transport. If engine is
tipped to transport equipment, to remove
