•
Fill fuel tank with clean, fresh, unleaded gasoline.
Be careful not to overfill. Allow about 1/2" tank

IMPORTANT
: It is important to prevent gum deposits
from forming in essential fuel system parts such as the
carburetor, fuel filter, fuel hose or tank during storage.
Also, experience indicates that alcohol-blended fuels
(called gasohol, 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
storage of 30 days or longer. See "Storage" on
page 17. Never use engine or carburetor cleaner
products in the fuel tank or permanent damage may
occur.
