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.
CAUTION : It is important to prevent gum
deposits from forming in essential fuel system
parts such as the carburetor , fuel filter , fuel
hose, or fuel tank during storage. Alcohol
blended fuels (called gasohol or u sing ethanol
or methanol) can attract moisture which leads
to f uel mixture separation and formation of
acids during storage. Acidic gas can damage
the engine.
