ENGINE
FUEL SYSTEM
It is important to prevent gum deposits from forming
in essential system parts such as carburettor.
Fuel filter, fuel hose, or tank during storage. Also,
experience indicates that alcohol blended fuels
(called gasohol or using ethanol or methanol) can
attract moisture which leads to separation and
formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas can
damage the fuel system of an engine while in storage.
•
Drain the fuel tank
•
Start the engine and let it run until the fuel lines
and carburettor are empty.
•
Never use engine or carburettor cleaner
products in the fuel tank or permanent damage
may occur.
•
Use fresh fuel next season.
NOTE: Fuel stabilizer is an acceptable alternative in
minimising the formation of fuel gum deposits during
storage container. Always follow the mix ratio found
on the stabilizer container. Run engine at least 10
minutes after adding stabilizer to allow the stabilizer
to reach the carburettor. Do not drain the fuel tank
and carburettor if using fuel stabilizer. Drain oil (with
engine warm) and replace with clean engine oil.
