WARNING:
Experience indicates that 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.
To avoid engine
problems, the fuel system should be emptied before stor-
age of 30 days or longer,
Drain the fuel tank, start the
engine and let it run until fuel lines and carburetor are
