I've heard that you should use up all of the gas in the tank before
it's stored for the winter but I watched this Youtube video and the
guy says Briggs and Stratton recommends to fill the tank before
storage. What is the CW on this?

Here's the Briggs and Stratton site which says to only do so if you
use their special additive.

either run it dry, or use Sta-Bil and fill it completely.

Or just let it go...I've never had a lick of trouble in just cutting off
the supply at the bowl and letting it run out. A fresh dollop in the
carb bowl next spring and it fires right up and rest is just fine.

If storing for a _very_ long time like a year or more, I'd go to more
trouble, but just over a few months winter period, not so much.

That said, either of the other alternatives isn't _that_ much trouble,
so do whatever feels good to you...

$0.02, etc., ...
