Storing Your Honda
Tips
(cont’d)
To prevent rusting in the cylinder,
perform the following:
Remove the spark plug cap from the
spark plug. Using tape or string,
secure the cap to any convenient
plastic body part so that it is
positioned away from the spark plug.
Remove the spark plug from the
engine and store it in a safe place. 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.
Drain the carburetor 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.
