Storing Your Honda
Tips
(cont’d)
To prevent rusting in the cylinders,
perform the following:
Remove the spark plug caps from the
spark plugs. Using tape or string,
secure the caps to any convenient
plastic body part so that they are
positioned away from the spark plugs.
Remove the spark plugs from the
engine and store them in a safe place.
Do not connect the spark plugs to the
spark plug caps.
Pour a tablespoon (15
20 cc) of
clean engine oil into each cylinder
and cover the spark plug holes with a
piece of cloth.
Drain the carburetors into an approved
gasoline container and dispose of it in
an approved manner (page
).
If storage will last longer than one
month, carburetor draining is important,
to assure proper performance after
storage.
