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.

Do what Briggs and Stratton recommends. Put fuel preservative in the tank
and fill it up. An empty tank is subject to condensation.
