WARNING: | Experience indicates that |
| ||
alcohol blended fuels (called gasohol or |
| |||
those using ethanol or methanol) can |
| |||
attract moisture which leads to separation |
| |||
and formation of acids dunng storage. |
| |||
Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of |
| |||
an engine while in storage. To avoid engine |
| |||
problems, the fuel system should be | I | |||
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 | ||||
