Draining gasoline is unnecessary if the fuel
stabilizer is used according to the instructions
that come with it. Run Pressure Washer
engine for a minimum of two minutes, after
stabilizers added to fuel, to allow it to circulate
throughout the engine. The engine fuel can
be stored up to 24 months.
Store gasoline from one season to another
unless it's been treated with fuel stabilizer.
Replace fuel container, if metal, and if it
begins to rust. Rust and dirt and debris can
contaminate fuel supply and components
resulting in poor performance and /or internal
damage to engine. Fuel should be stored in
newer approved plastic storage containers.
