Follow the mix instructions found on stabiliz-

er containers. Run engine at least 5 minutes

after adding stabilizer.

Poulan/WEED EATER 40:1, 2-cycle engine

oil (air cooled) is blended with fuel stabilizer.

If you do not use this oil, you can add a fuel

stabilizer to your fuel tank.

HELPFUL TIP

During storage of your gas/

oil mixture, the oil will sepa-

rate from the gas.

We recommend that you

shake the gas can weekly

to insure proper blending of

the gas and oil.
