How to Winterize & Store Equipment- What Most People DONT KNOW
What happens here
After stabilizing the fuel and running the engine, ensure the fuel tank is filled as completely as possible with the freshly stabilized gasoline. This minimizes the air space inside the tank. Leaving a significant amount of air in the fuel tank, particularly during fluctuating temperatures, can lead to condensation forming over the storage period. This condensation introduces water into your fuel, which can cause corrosion and prevent the engine from starting properly in the spring.
Goal: Prevent condensation by eliminating air space in the fuel tank.
