Default 2 or 4 Cycle Small Engines... to drain or not to drain??

leave the tank full and the system full. IF you're anal about stale gas
after 3 months, (which it won't be) then dump it, refill and run the machine
a few minutes. You could treat with stabil, but some folks here don't think
too much of it. It works for me.

I am very adamant about draining my snowblower and lawnmower engines
during the offseasons. My friend here at work is against it. He
insists the moisture and condensation build up and can ruin the
insides and the carburetor.

Anyone have thoughts or opinions on this?
