IMPORTANT

Experience indicates that alcohol blended fuels (called gasohol or using ethanol or metha- nol) can attract moisture which leads to separa- tion and formation of acids during storage. Acid- ic gas can damage the fuel system 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 en- gine and let it run until the fuel lines and carbure- tor are empty. Use fresh fuel next season.

Never use engine or carburetor cleaner prod- ucts in the fuel tank or permanent damage may occur. See the STORAGE section for addi- tional information.
