minutes to distribute treated fuel through
the fuel system.
2. Remove the spark plug, pour about one tablespoon of SAE 10W-40 or 20W-50
motor oil in the spark plug hole and install
the spark plug. Ground the spark plug
wire and turn the engine over several
times to coat the cylinder wall with oil.
3. Lubricate all control cables.
4. Block up the frame to raise all wheels off the ground.
Specified amount:1 oz of stabilizer to each gallon of fuel (or
