13. STORAGE
Storage Preparation
Correct storage preparation is essential for keeping your engine
troublefree and looking good. The following steps will help to keep
rust and corrosion from impairing your engine’s function and
appearance, and will make the engine easier to start when you use
it again.
Cleaning
1.Clean all exterior surfaces.
2.Wash the engine with a garden hose or other low pressure
equipment. If the engine has been running, allow it to cool for at
least half an hour before spraying water on it. Never spray water
on a hot engine.
3.Start the engine, and let it run until it reaches normal operating
temperature to evaporate any remaining water.
4.Stop the engine, and allow it to cool.
Fuel
Gasoline will oxidize and deteriorate in storage. Deteriorated
gasoline will cause hard starting, and it leaves gum deposits that
clog the fuel system. If the gasoline in your engine deteriorates
during storage, you may need to have the carburetor, and other
fuel system components, serviced or replaced.
The length of time that gasoline can be left in your fuel tank and
carburetor without causing functional problems will vary with such
factors as gasoline blend, your storage temperatures, and
whether the fuel tank is partially or completed filled. The air in a
partially filled fuel tank promotes fuel deterioration.
Very warm storage temperatures accelerate fuel deterioration.
Fuel problems may occur within a few months, or even less if the
gasoline was not fresh when you filled the fuel tank.
Fuel system damage or engine performance problems resulting
from neglected storage preparation are not covered under
warranty.
You can extend fuel storage life by adding a gasoline stabilizer that
is formulated for that purpose, or you can avoid fuel deterioration
problems by draining the fuel tank and carburetor.
Adding a gasoline stabilizer to extend fuel storage life:
1.When adding a gasoline stabilizer, fill the fuel tank with fresh
gasoline. If only partially filled, air in the tank will promote fuel
deterioration during storage. If you keep a container of gasoline
for refueling, be sure that it contains only fresh gasoline.
2.Add gasoline stabilizer following manufacturers instructions.
3.After adding a gasoline stabilizer, run the engine outdoors for
10 minutes to be sure that treated gasoline has replaced the
untreated gasoline in the carburetor.
4.Stop the engine and turn the fuel valve to the OFF position.
