In most cases, the performance life of equipment is directly dependent on the life of the engine. While engines on Toro equipment are built to keep working under even the most challenging conditions, all engines are vulnerable to a simple little villain: stale gas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortunately,\nyou can defeat the effects of stale gas by using a simple little solution: fuel\nstabilizer. This article will review the dangers of deteriorating gas and how\nto use a fuel stabilizer to extend equipment life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fuel Deteriorates Over Time
<\/strong>For all gasoline engines in Toro equipment, the recommended fuel is unleaded with an octane rating of at least 87 ((R+M)\/2 rating method). Gasoline with up to 10% ethanol (gasohol) or 15% MTBE (methyl tertiary butyl ether) by volume is acceptable. Ideally, only purchase the amount of fuel that you\u2019ll use within 30 days because all gasoline breaks down over time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fuel breaks down because it becomes\nexposed to oxygen and it draws moisture. The breakdown begins to form gummy\ndeposits in the fuel, which can cause an engine to run poorly. The engine may\nstall, surge, have a power reduction \u2014 even not start at all. In addition, the\nabsorption of water can cause system components to clog or corrode, further\nreducing equipment life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the past, equipment owners let the\nequipment run until all of the fuel was discharged, but this is expensive and\nwasteful. A far better solution is to use a fuel stabilizer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Protect Your Equipment
<\/strong>Toro Premi<\/a>um Fuel Treatment<\/a> and other fuel stabilizers protect engines from the effects of gas deterioration. They reduce the evaporation rate of the fuel\u2019s volatile compounds and prevent moisture absorption by forming a protective layer over the top of the gasoline. Some stabilizers, including Toro Premium Fuel Treatment, also have detergents that dissolve fuel system deposits. The result is clean, reliable engine performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Toro<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Fuel stabilizers work in both 2-\nand 4-cycle engines. Best of all, using them is easy. Just add one ounce of\nfuel stabilizer per two gallons of fuel. This will keep the fuel protected and\nfresh for at least 12 months. At a minimum, do this before storing the\nequipment for the season. Ideally, though, add stabilizer with every fill-up to\nprovide protection and keep your machine\u2019s system clean. It\u2019s an inexpensive\nand easy way to extend equipment life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you have any questions about fuel stabilizers, just contact Toro\u2019s Technical Service Team. You can get Toro Premium Fuel Treatment from your \u30c7\u30a3\u30b9\u30c8\u30ea\u30d3\u30e5\u30fc\u30bf\u3078<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
