WARNING: Experience indicates that alcohol blended fuels (called gasohol or those using ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture whic h 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 for 30 days or longer. Start engine and let it run until fuel lines and carburetor are empty. Use carburetor bowl drain to empty residual gasoline from float chamber (See figure in Storage section, page 16). Use fresh fuel next season. (See Storage Instructions on page 16 for additional information).
Never use engine or carburetor cleaner products in the fuel tank or permanent damage may occur.
