1.
For long term storage, either drain gasoline from fuel tank or add a fuel stabilizer to the gasoline. T gasoline, refer to Draining Gasoline, page 13. After fuel is drained, start engine and let it idle until all fuel is consumed and engine stops. Repeat the starting procedure two more times to ensure all gas is removed from the engine. If gasoline is not drained, gum-like varnish deposits will form and cause poor engine operation, even starting problems.
Note:
If engine is operating on oxygenated or reformulated gasoline (gasoline blended with an alcohol or an ether), remove all fuel from tank and run engine until it stops from lack of fuel before storing.
