FUEL SYSTEM
IMPORTANT:
It is important to prevent
gum deposits
from forming
in essential
fuel system
parts such as carburetor,
fuel
filter, luel hose, or tank during storage.
Also, alcohol
blended
fuels (called
gasohol
or using ethanol
or methanol)
can atlract
moisture
which leads to
separation
and formation
of acids during
storage.
Acidic gas can damage
the fuel
system
of an engine
while in slorage.
1.
Drain the fue! tank.
2.
Start the engine
and let it run until the
fuel lines and carburetor
are empty.

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
after adding
