Drain the gasoline into a suitable container
2. Change the engine oil (see page 13).
3. Remove the spark plug, and pour about a tablespoon of clean
engine oil into the cylinder. Crank the engine several revolutions
to distribute the oil, then reinstall the spark plug.
4. Slowly pull the starter grip until resistance is felt. At this point,
the piston is coming up on its compression stroke and both the

Storing the engine in this position will help to protect it from in-
ternal corrosion.
