HELPFUL TIP

During storage of your gas/ oil mixture, the oil will sepa- rate from the gas.

We recommend that you shake the gas can weekly to insure proper blending of the gas and oil.

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

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.
