Gasoline left in the fuel system for extended 
periods without a stabilizer will deteriorate, 
resulting in gum deposits in the system. 
These deposits can damage the carburetor 
and the fuel hoses, filter and tank. Prevent 
deposits from forming in the fuel system 
during storage by adding a quality fuel 
stabilizer to the fuel. Follow the 
recommended mix ratio found on the fuel 
stabilizer container.

IMPORTANT: NEVER store the engine with 
fuel in the fuel tank inside of a building with 
potential sources of ignition.

1. Turn the fuel valve off while engine is 

running and allow the engine to run until

surging to avoid engine damage.

2. Add fuel stabilizer, following the 

manufacturer’s instructions.

3. Turn fuel valve on after adding fuel 

stabilizer.

4. Re-start engine.
5. Run the engine outdoors for 1 minute to 

be sure that treated gasoline has 
replaced the untreated gasoline in the 
carburetor.
