Understanding Bad Gas

The Impact of Ethanol on Snowthrower

One of the most common issues Snowthrower owners face is the problem of bad gas. Modern gasoline often contains ethanol, which can significantly impact the performance of your Snowthrower. Ethanol attracts water, and over time, this can lead to water accumulation in your fuel. When gas sits for extended periods, especially in a Snowthrower's small fuel system, it can separate and cause starting issues or poor performance. This is particularly problematic for 2-cycle engines, which are more susceptible to fuel-related problems due to their design and emissions standards.

Preventing Fuel Problems

To prevent these issues, it is crucial to use fresh gasoline and avoid letting fuel sit in your Snowthrower for more than a month. Regular maintenance and proper storage can help mitigate the effects of ethanol and keep your Snowthrower running smoothly.

Gas Maintenance Tips

Proper Gas Handling for Snowthrower

Maintaining the quality of the gas you use in your chainsaw is essential for its longevity and performance. Here are some tips to ensure your Snowthrower runs efficiently:

1. Only buy as much gas as you can use within a month. This prevents the gas from going stale and attracting water.

2. If you have leftover gas after a month, pour it into your car or truck. This is an environmentally friendly way to dispose of old gas, and the small amount of oil in mixed gas won't harm your vehicle's engine.

3. Always purchase fresh gas with a minimum of 89 octane for the best performance.

4. At the end of each season, run your Snowthrower dry before storing it. This prevents old gas from sitting in the fuel system and causing issues when you next use the equipment.
