ENGINE
FUEL
SYSTEM
iMPORTANT:
It ts important
to prevent
gum deposits
from forming
in essential
fuel system
parts such as carburetor,
fuel
filter, fuel hose or tank during
storage.
Also, alcohol
blended
fuels
(called
gasohol
or using
ethanol
or methanol)
can attract
moisture
which
leads to
separation
and formation
of acids
during
storage.
Acidic
gas can damage
the fuel
system
of an engine
while
in storage.
• Empty
the fuel tank by starting
the en-
gine and letting
it run until the fuel lines
and carburetor
are empty.
Never
use engine
or carburetor
cleaner
products
in the fuel tank or permanent
damage
may occur.
Use fresh fuel next season.
NOTE:
Fuel stabilizer
is an acceptable
alternative
in minimizing
the formation
of fuel gum
deposits
during
storage.
Add stabilizer
to gasoline
in fuel tank or
storage
container.
Always
follow
the mix
ratio found
on stabilizer
container.
Run
engine
at least 10 minutes
