Thanks, guys!
Ninerbikes, Do unused Stabil and oil go bad? I think I have both sitting around, in jugs a couple years old. Or do I have to go to the store?
Ductape, Is the air filter the fuzzy white stuff that lines the exhaust outlet, or something else? It is pretty clean, not perfect. Are you implying I can actually buy a new one? Should I?
Mr Wizard, do you mean that unleaded is ok???
Shake oil up thoroughly, to mix up additives. Is it full synthetic and the proper oil weight/grade? You just bought a generator you are counting on to fill up your batteries daily, don't cut corners or a few bucks on motor oil, it is the lifeblood of that new to you generator.
Stabil keeps just fine, just make sure you put the cap on securely for storage.
