STORAGE

Engines stored over 30 days need special attention.
[1]. To prevent gum from forming in fuel system or on

essential carburetor parts:

a) if fuel tank contains oxygenated or reformulated

gasoline (gasoline blended with an alcohol or an ether),

run engine until it stops from lack of fuel, 

or 

b) if fuel tank

contains gasoline, either run engine until it stops from lack

of fuel, or add a gasoline additive to the gas in the tank.

(See parts list. Single-use pouches of gas additive are

available from your service dealer.) If you use a gas

additive, run the engine for several minutes to circulate the

additive through the carburetor. Then, engine and fuel can

be stored up to 24 months.

[2]. While engine is still warm, change oil.
[3]. Remove spark plugs and pour about 30 ml (1 oz.) of

engine oil into each cylinder. Replace spark plugs and

crank slowly to distribute oil.

[4]. Clean engine of surface debris, chaff or grass.

[5].

Store in a clean, dry area. Do

not store in same area as a

stove, furnace, water heater, or

other appliance that uses a pilot

light or has a device that can

create a spark.
