Are any fuel additives required or can I just put straight gas in it?

No additives, has a separate oil tank for the oil, and a separate gas tank for the gas, is really easy to check oil and goes a long distance on a tank of gas. Hope that helps.

Ive located a Non-ethonal gas station nearby which is the only fuel i have put in the machine. No issues this far and I am cutting more grass than the machine is rated for.

No additives required for normal operation. I like to add a fuel stabilizer if I store it for extended periods

How old is the fuel mixture? It needs to be fresh or mixed before use.If it has been sitting idle ..it needs to be mixed up so the fuel/gas is mixed .If the fuel mixture is not correct then it will smoke or not run.Do you have the right mixture..it is not just gasoline.

It's not recommend . I was told by the company to use an Ethanol treatment in the gas. This generator you do not mix oil in the gas . That means it needs oil put in it .

Use regular unleaded fuel 87 octane,do not mix oil with gas.Oil goes separate in the crankcase, oil type 5W30.

Easy. Put gasoline in gasoline approved containers. You'll know the difference. @@

No this is a four cycle engine, so you do not have to mix it. It takes separate oil and gas.

I have heard that gas with ethanol goes bad pretty fast, and that is what all the gas is now at regular gas stations. To be on the safe side, you probably ought to drain your tank and get rid of the old stuff. Pri-G is best added when the fuel is fresh to keep it from going bad in the first place--I don't think it can restore it if it is already bad. We buy pure gas with no ethanol in it for some smaller four stroke machines we have, and the guy who sold it to us said that it is a lot more stable than gas with ethanol in it. He said he could leave the pure gas in the tank of his motorcycle for a long time without any additives and it was fine. I am not an expert on these things however and I would suggest that you consult your mechanic on this issue as they probably have good experience with it and can tell you if the old gas will damage your engine.

Yes, all you need to do is buy refill fuel discs, but make sure you place it on a non-flammable surface like stone

If you follow instructions, not difficult at all. I put StaBil gas stabilizer in the ethanol-free gasoline I use. Run all gas out of the carburetor when finished. Usually starts on first or second pull.

The manual recommends non-ethanol fuel with a min 87 octane. If ethanol is used, a ethanol fuel stabilzer will need to be added. I am currently using non-ethanol gas and also added Stabil as a precaution. So far the unit operates fine.

It sure is all you need is some nitro and a fresh glow plug cause u will want to run it at an idle for at least three tanks of fuel to break it in properly

I used standard fuel line , i believe. It's been so long ago I have really forgot, my nephew hooked it for me since I had just had surgery and could not get under the vehicle myself. It's working fine with no problems. I hope that helps.

Honestly, I don't know. I don't have a flat gas top. I suggest you research and find out.

Use premium gasoline and if you can't get non-ethanol use a fuel stabilizer additive.

Nope, but why would you want to?? This should be added every few thousand miles or so to your gas tank and "immediate need" is not required. I place a mileage sticker on my gas filler cover so I know when to add it next, just as a reminder and keep the bottle in my garage.
