[QUOTE="tnriverluver, post: 277833, member: 9284"] I am from the school of run it dry. Been doing it for forty years and the only time I ever had problems was when I didn't run it out and let it sit longer than I intended to. (yep clogged up carbs then). The way I look at it is as long as the motor has enough gas to stay running then it also has enough oil. VRO motors is a no no however because it gets too much oil at the end resulting in fouled plugs. [/QUOTE]
