Fyi, running carb dry only drains the primary bowl.

Engine will stall long before secondary bowl drains

What goes fast doesn't go fast long'
What goes fast takes your money with it.

My 496 is an E85 motor. I can make it a couple months with stabilized E85 in the primary bowl if I'm moving it around, for the secondary I have to pull the bowl off and clean it out. Anything remotely long term I pull both bowls, drain the tank and blow out the lines. A bit of a hassle but with compression it's cheap race fuel.
