LONG TERM STORAGE
If you do not plan to use the cleaning system for more
than 30 days, you must prepare the engine for long

It is important to prevent gum deposits from forming in
essential fuel system parts such as the carburetor, fuel
filter, fuel hose or tank during storage. Also,
experience indicates that alcohol-blended fuels (called
gasohol, ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture
which leads to separation and formation of acids
during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system
of an engine while in storage.
