Ethanol Free Gas Extends the Life of Power Tools

- Saturday, January 14, 2012

In Massachusetts, it is time to store your power tools and yard equipment for the winter. Has it ever happened that you store your power tools that were running perfectly, but in the spring they just won’t start?
 
Fuel-related problems are among most common issues for power tools and small engines. Gas today is made and blended for fuel injected engines that tunes and adjusts the engine to the fuel as it is being operated. Most small engines and power tools still use carburetors to blend the gas with air for the engine to run.

Nearly all the fuel sold today has at least 10% ethanol added. Many small engines and power tools are damaged by the alcohol in today's gasoline.

The engine that ran fine last season, but then won’t start is often a result of the use of ethanol, which can cause rust and carbon deposits inside the engine and dissolve plastic parts. The ethanol in the gasoline is corroding and damaging to a lot of yard equipment and tools.

J & J Small Engine Clinic sells Ethanol-free gas in small cans that sell at a premium but promise to make your small engines last. Contact us for service and for more information on the benefits of using Ethanol free gasoline in your small engines.
