Easy engine shut off
| This tip not only makes it easy to stop your engine, but it also allows you to completely shut off the fuel flow so you can run the engine dry before storage. Shut-off valves for use on aquarium air lines can be found at most pet stores, and they’re very inexpensive. To install one, cut the fuel line that’s between the tank and the carb, and insert the valve into the line. Use fuel-line clips or zip-ties to help secure it. When you’re ready to stop the engine, just flip the valve. It’s a lot easier than trying to pinch the fuel line with your fingers?especially with the body still on. Andrew Plante Blackstone, MA |
