I've had different opinions locally about whether to drain the carbs over
the winter storage in my unheated garage. Some say in this temperate
climate, where it only dips below freezing a few times these days and
there's only a week of ice & snow, it's not indicated as it'll only dry out
the seals and rubber. Others say despite gas stabilizer, I shouldn't keep
old gas and crud in the float bowls and should drain.

Comments, anyone?
