OIL AND FUEL INFORMATION

RECOMMENDED FUEL TYPE

Old fuel is the primary reason for the unit not running properly. Be sure to use fresh, clean, unleaded Gasoline.

NOTE: This is a four cycle engine. In order to avoid damage to the unit, do not mix oil with Gasoline.

Definition of Blended Fuels

Today's fuels are often a blend of gasoline and oxygenates such as ethanol, methanol or MTBE (ether). Alcohol-blended fuel absorbs water. As little as 1% water in the fuel can make fuel and oil separate or form acids when stored. Use fresh fuel (less than 60 days old), when using alcohol-blended fuel.

Using Blended Fuels

If you choose to use a blended fuel, or its use is unavoidable, follow recommended precautions.
