[Rhodes22-list] We launched today! Lake Michigan motor stuff.

Do you mean disconnect the fuel line and suck everything out of the carb? Or install a petcock valve? I never thought about this for my boat, but I shutoff the petcock valve on my generator and run it until it dies.

Just so I don't mislead anyone, it may be a good idea to run the gas out of your outboard each time you use it.

I bought an outboard today and the dealer told me you'd have to be a complete idiot to not drain the gas each time.

I didn't tell him that I'm a complete idiot, but I do plan on following his instructions.
