Fuel

Depending on the region where you operate your equipment, fuel
formulations may deteriorate and oxidize rapidly. Fuel deterioration and
oxidation can occur in as little as 30 days and may cause damage to
the carburetor and/or fuel system. Please check with your servicing
dealer for local storage recommendations.
Gasoline will oxidize and deteriorate in storage. Old gasoline will cause
hard starting, and it leaves gum deposits that clog the fuel system. If
the gasoline in your tiller 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 completely filled. The air in a partially filled fuel tank promotes
fuel deterioration. Very warm storage temperatures accelerate fuel
deterioration. Fuel deterioration problems may occur within a few months,
or even less if the gasoline was not fresh when you filled the fuel tank.
