Fuel Recommendations

WARNING:

Explosive

Fuel!

Gasoline is extremely

flammable

and its vapors can

explode if ignited. Store gasoline only in approved

'containers,

in well ventilated,

unoccupied

buildings,

away from sparks or flames. Do not fill the fuel tank

while the engine is hot or running, since spilled fuel

could ignite if it comes in contact with hot parts or

sparks from ignition. Do not starf the engine near

spilled fuel. Never use gasoline as a cleaning agent.

General Recommendations

Purchase gasoline in small quantities

and store in

clean, approved containers.

A container

with a capacity

of 2 gallons or less with a pouring spout is

recommended.

Such a container

is easier to handle

and helps eliminate

spillage during refueling.

Do not use gasoline

left over from the previous

season, to minimize

gum deposits

in your fuel system

and to insure easy starting.

Do not add oil to the gasoline.

Gasoline/Alcohol

blends

Gasohol (up to 10% ethyl alcohol, 90% unleaded

gasoline by volume) is approved

as a fuel for Kohler

engines. Other gasoline/alcohol

blends are not

approved.

Gasoline/Ether

blends

Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether (MTBE) and unleaded

gasoline blends (up to a maximum

of 15% MTBE by

volume) are approved as a fuel for Kohler engines.

Other gasoline/ether

blends are not approved.

Engine Identification Numbers

When ordering parts, or in any communication

involving

an engine, always give the Model,

Specification,

and Serial Numbers

of the engine.

The engine identification

numbers appear on decal (or

decals) affixed to the engine shrouding.

Include letter

suffixes,

if there are any.

Record your engine identification

numbers on the

identification

label below (Figure 4) for future

reference.

Do not overfill the fuel tank. Leave room for the fuel to

expand.

Fuel Type

For best results use only clean, fresh, unleaded

gasoline with a pump sticker octane rating of 87 or

higher. In countries

using the Research

method, it

should be 90 octane minimum.

Unleaded gasoline is recommended

as it leaves less

combustion

chamber deposits.

Leaded gasoline

may

be used in areas where unleaded

is not available

and

exhaust emissions are not regulated.

Be aware

however, that the cylinder

head will require more

frequent service.
