[QUOTE="bassboy1, post: 168044, member: 55"] I'll say that one a single carb engine, running it out of fuel is fine, but it is not a good idea on a multi - carb engine. 2 strokes, at least. Running a motor out of gas is also running it out of oil, so if one carb drains quicker than the rest, the cyls. fed by that carb are in essence being run without oil. Run a decent fuel stabilizer through it, then drain the carb via the plug in the float bowl on a mulicarb 2 stroke. [/QUOTE]
