each time.

if you keep gas longer than two months or so.

Does the engine have the right amount of clean oil? If it’s dirty, change it
following the procedure in the engine manufacturer's owner's manual.
⇒
Is the spark plug clean? If it’s fouled or cracked, change it. If it’s oily,
leave it out, hold a rag over the plug hole and pull the recoil cord several
times to blow out any oil in the cylinder, then wipe off the plug and reinsert
it.
