[DML] WINTER STORAGE



current thinking on storage regarding fuel systems is
that it is probably best to at least drain the tank
to 1\4 to keep the fuel off of the pump boot. In my
opinion it is best if you drain the tank. that way
the hose to the pump doesn't sit in the fuel either.
Here in n.j. the fuel has up to 10% mtbe additive
yearlong as an oxidizer to reduce pollution.
not only is it a known carcinegen it contaminates
groundwater and breaks down rubber.Every day in this
metro area you hear about another car fire. when you
consider the effect of mtbe on the rubber components
of your fuel system and the fact it is under high
pressure; about 75 psi a minor leak will destroy the
car quickly.besides it is a good time to inspect a 
hidden area of the car and remove any dirt.
