FUEL SYSTEM
WARNING
Replacement parts for fuel system (tank, hoses, valves, etc.)
must be the same quality as original parts, otherwise fire can
occur.
STORAGE
Engines stored over 30 days need to be protected or drained of
fuel to prevent gum from forming in fuel system or on essential
carburetor parts.
For engine protection, we recommend use of Briggs & Stratton
Fuel Stabilizer available from an Authorized Briggs & Stratton
Service Dealer. Mix stabilizer with fuel in fuel tank or storage
container. Run engine for a short time to circulate stabilizer
through carburetor. Engine and fuel can be stored up to 24
months.
Note: If stabilizer is not used or if engine is operating on
gasoline containing alcohol, e.g. gasohol, remove all
fuel from tank and run engine until it stops from lack of
fuel.
1. Change oil.
2. Remove spark plug and pour about 15 ml (1/2 oz) of
engine oil into cylinder. Replace spark plug and crank
slowly to distribute oil.
3. Clean chaff and debris from cylinder and cylinder head
fins, under finger guard and behind muffler.
4. Store in a clean and dry area, but NOT near a stove,
furnace or water heater which uses a pilot light or any
device that can create a spark.
