IMPORTANT
Experience indicates that alcohol
blended fuels (called gasohol or using
ethanol or methanol) can attract mois-
ture which leads to separation and
formation of acids during storage.
Acidic gas can damage the fuel sys-
tem 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
engine and let it run until the fue! lines
and carburetor are empty. Use fresh
fue! next season.
Never use engine or carburetor clean-
er products in the fuel tank or perma*
nent damage may occur.
See the STORAGEsection for addition-
al information.
