IF CHECK
Poor Engine Performance Fuel:
• Dirt in fuel system or fuel is old. Replace fuel with fresh stabilized
fuel. Obtain fuel from another supplier before suspecting machine

will generally solve any performance problems

performance problems by causing gum and varnish deposits,
especially if fuel is stored for several weeks or more. Obtain fresh
fuel.
