Let it run dry then pull the cord a couple times. Since doing that I

I've never done anything in the 7 years I've had my mower. Just leave
whatever gas is in it, top it off when I get it back out in the
spring. All I've ever noticed is that it takes a couple of extra
pulls that first day.
Then you have gotten lucky. Gasoline generally won't be good after 6 months
and can gum up the fuel line to boot. Keep doing it if you like, but please
don't recommend it to others.
I have always drained or run all fuel from any moter that I own and
have always had them start first pull after storage was taught this by
a master mechanic
