As the weather now starts to get cooler, and it’s welcome after the hot months here in Florida, this makes for excellent motorcycle and convertible weather. But for some of you up north, very soon this will mean that it’s time to put these toys away for the winter. The fall months are the time to place boats, motorcycles, and lawn care equipment into storage and prepare snowmobiles, snowblowers and other vehicles.
AMSOIL products are formulated to provide maximum protection for engines and fuel systems during storage, while AMSOIL synthetic motor oils low pour points provide superior cold-temperature protection and performance in two- and four-stroke winter equipment.
Fall Storage Protection
Gasoline can break down in as little as 60 days, causing varnish and gums that clog injectors, fuel lines and carburetors, leading to poor engine performance and starting problems. In many applications, draining the fuel system can be impractical, and doing so can expose the system to corrosion on the bare metal in the tank and the fuel system and cause gasket and seal cracking.
In the next few posts I will go over some of the various products AMSOIL has available to help during storage and over the winter months.
