As far as I know the only way to get all the fuel out is to remove the drain screws from each float bowl. Some folks run aviation gas when they put their motors up for the winter . Its very stable.

Marc, Can you tell me if running the engine dry drains the carb bowels or is that something else I should do??.


Tom,

The first couple of years I had my former 2002 Honda BF-90 I would run the engine "dry" before winter storage. Then to make sure, I opened the drain screws on the carbs and was surprised to find they still had fuel in them. Since then I just drain the carbs.
