A. Fuel System
It is important to prevent gum deposits from forming in essen-
tial fuel system parts such as the carburetor, fuel filter, fuel
hose, or tank during storage Also, experience indicates that
alcohol blended fuels (called gasohol or using ethanol or
methanol) can attract moisture which leads to separation and
formation 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
