A • Fuel System
It is important to prevent gum deposits from form-
ing in essential fuel system parts such as the car-
buretor, fuel filter, fuel hose, or tank during storage
Also, experience indicates that alcohol blended fuels
(called gasohol or using ethanol or methanol) can at-
tract moisture which leads to separation and forma-
tion 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 of 30 days or longer
