Use clean, fresh, regular unleaded gasoline with a
minimum of 85 octane. Do not mix oil with gasoline. If
unleaded fuel is unavailable leaded fuel may be used.
IMPORTANT: It is important to prevent gum deposits
from forming in essential fuel system parts such as
the carburetor,fuel filter hose or tank during storage.
Also, experience indicates that alcohol-blended fuels
(calledgasohol or usingethanol or methanol)can
attract moisture which leads to separation and forma-
tion of acids during storage. Acidic gas can damage
the fuel system of an engine while in storage. To avoid
engine problems, the fuel system should be emptied
before storage of 30 days or longer.Never use engine
or carburetor cleaner products in the fuel tank or
permanent damage may occur.
