(S5) Carburetor
The carburetor must
be
dried out com-
pletely to prevent gum formation during
the storage period.
1.
Assure that fuel lines are disconnect-
ed
then start the engine and run it out
of gas.
2.
Engage choke and remove air silencer
cover, then pack the carburetor throat
with a clean piece of cloth and turn the

of
gum formation.
Ask

ing directions on the can. Pour mixture
