preparing for storage

how do I drain the fuel out the carburetor I know how to drain it out the gas tank and in the fuel hose

Turn the petcock to off and let it run dry

 

[White88Lightning]

no worries of blowing anything? will it just run itself out and shut down?

 

[YAMAHAULER]

Yep I do it after every ride
or you can just loosen the drain screw on the bowl

Cool, I'll give it a go. Thanks.

You may also want to run stabil in the tank enough to get it in the carbs, then park it. It seems like a dry carb could dry out. Ofcourse the gas today ain't what it used to be but would like some more input on this.

Sorry, I see the question was specifically answered as asked. But I would like to add a question, is it good to drain or do you keep treated fuel in the fuel line?

 

[beastlywarrior228]

drain it i dont see any harm actually ive seen stabil do some nasty stuff

I would drain it because ethanol is known to eat through rubber fuel lines

Deff drain it, it does eat through the lines. Even good lines become weak a brittle after a while.
