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 plug and pour about 1/2 oz.
(15 ml) of engine oil into cylinder. Replace spark
plug 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.
