Storing Your Honda
(cont’d)
Refer to Safety Precautions on page 105.
This procedure requires a means for draining and disposing
of drained fuel (page 196
).
1.
Change the engine oil and filter (page 125).
2.
Make sure the cooling system is filled with a 50/50% antifreeze
solution (page 133).
3.
Fill the fuel tank. Make sure the fuel fill cap is properly installed.
4.
Check that the fuel valve is OFF.
5.
Drain the carburetor into an approved gasoline container and
dispose of it in an approved manner (page 196).
If storage will last longer than one month, carburetor draining is
important to assure proper performance after storage.
6.
To prevent rusting in the cylinder, perform the following:
• Remove the spark plug cap from the spark plug.
• Remove the spark plug.
Do not connect the spark plug to the spark plug cap.
• Pour a tablespoon (15 – 20 cc) of clean engine oil into the
cylinder and cover the spark plug hole with a piece of cloth.
