FUEL SYSTEM
IMPORTANT:
It is important to prevent gum
deposits from forming in essential fuel system
parts such as carburetor, fuel filter, fuel hose,
or tank during storage. Also, 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 fue! system of an engine
w-nile in storage.
o Drain the fuel tank.
o Start the engine and let it run until the fuel
lines and carburetor are empty.
° Never use engine or carburetor cleaner
products in the fue! tank or permanent
damage may occur.

alternative in minimizing the forma_on of fuel
gum deposits during storage.
