RE: to prove em wrong!
Let me ask this question how many here besides Kemo has hurt or messed up and engine by either plugging the stinger or pinching the fuel line? All so how many gallons of run time on the engine. Was it from pinching the fuel or plugging the stinger or the fact the engine was just ware out?
May articles and manuals tell you to check your low speed setting to pinch the fuel line. All so I do not see what the difference between pinching the fuel line and running out of fuel. I have read many places that say after a day of running with the fuel tank empty try to start your engine to make sure all the fuel is burnt off. When ever I do any of the above there is still plenty of lubrication in the engine so I do not see the harm. Good lubricant does not burn all off that is why so much comes out the pipe after running if you turn the vehicle on its side. I have many engines with over 5 gallons on them that I stop by plugging the stinger with out a problem.
