Fuel
- Details
Most of the complaints we hear are fuel related. This is due to the ethanol in the fuel it is alcohol which is an excellent solvent. It can dissolve plastic, rubber, fiberglass, and more. Ethanol is also hygroscopic, meaning it absorbs water … this is bad! Over time, the ethanol in fuel can harm your small engine if it is left in storage too long. In an effort to help you save money and extend the life of your equipment, we offer these suggestions.
Buy only a 30 Day Supply of Fuel
Fuel deteriorates over a period of time. Once the compounds in the fuel evaporate, the machine can become hard or impossible to start. Continued evaporation will cause the fuel to turn gummy and can become a hard varnish. We strongly recommend the highest grade fuel from a name brand fuel, try to purchase from a busy station this will help ensure the fuel’s freshness.
These deposits can clog the carburetor, preventing the machine from running properly, or causing it to stop running completely. If these deposits prevent the carburetor's float needle from sealing properly, fuel leaks can also occur.
Use a Fuel Stabilizer
Use a fuel stabilizer and add it the day you purchase the fuel. These products contain stabilizers that can help prevent evaporation, water absorption, gum and varnish formation, and corrosion and may extend the shelf life of ethanol fuel.
