SMALL ENGINE ADVICE & CARE... (π because we care)
This is a picture of the inside of a carburetor. The carburetor is essential for the small engine to run. This displays what happens when pump gas containing (10% or more) ethanol, sits in the carb. The carb should look smooth, clean, and not corroded. This damage can happen as soon as 30 days after the machine sitting with pump gas in it. The fuel transforms into harmful deposits and corrosion, and also changes in chemical compounds. It causes harm to the carburetor, rubber, plastic, brass and other vital components of your small engine. This, in turn, may cause you to need a carburetor service or even a new carburetor at the beginning of the next season (or sooner). To solve this problem, run your pump fuel completely out of the small engine and fill with ethanol-free fuel for storage or use all the time for max engine performance. We carry Kawasaki 50:1 mixed and 4-cycle fuels and Red Armor 50:1 mixed fuel for your small engine care and maintenance.
