CAUTION: It is important to prevent gum deposits from forming in essential fuel system parts such as the carburetor, fuel fil- ter, fuel hose, or fuel tank during storage. Al-

cohol blended fuels (called gasohol or using ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture which leads to fuel mixture separation and formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas can damage the engine.
