IMPORTANT
Experience
indicates that alcohol
blended fuels (called gasohol
or using
ethanol or methanol)
can attract mois-
ture which leads to separation
and
formation
of acids during storage.
Acidic gas can damage
the fuel sys-
tem of an engine while in storage.
To avoid engine problems, empty the
fuel system before storage for 30 days
or longer. Drain the gas tank, start the
engine and let it run until the fuel lines
and carburetor
are empty. Use fresh
fuel next season.
Never use engine or carburetor
clean-
er products
in the fuel tank or perma-
nent damage may occur.
See the STORAGE section for addition-
al information.
