CAUTION!Alcohol-blended fuels (calledgasohol, ethanol or
methanol) can attract moisture, which leadsto separation and
formation of acids during storage.Acidic gascan damagethe
fuel system of an enginewhile in storage.
To avoid engine problems, the fuel systemshould be treated
with a fuel preserver or emptied beforestorage of 30 days or
longer. If adding a fuel preserver,fill the fuel tank with fresh
fuel. if only partially filled, air in the tank will promote fuel
deterioration during storage, if fuel preserver is not used,
drain the fuel tank, start the engineand let it run until the fuel
linesand carburetor are empty. Usefresh fuel next season.
SeeStoragefor additional information.
NEVERuse engine or carburetor cleaner products in the fuel
tank as permanent damagemay occur.
FreshStart FuelCap
Adding fuel preserver helps keepfuel fresh and carburetors
clean for easier starting, all season long. This new fuel cap
automatically drips concentrated fuel preserverinto your fuel
tank.
