Welcome to the site where the owners and members have had it with playing "nice" and being "inclusive" and "tolerant" of points of view that are destroying the fabric of what made this country great. The members here are sick and tired of politicians of all parties lying, deceiving, stealing, and pretending they are doing it all for the good of the country while selling out to special interests who have the set goal of destroying this country. We have had enough of career politicians who use their office only for personal gain, and who refuse to listen to the people who put them in office. The membership is no longer part of the silent majority who play nice and get along while getting screwed by anyone with a loud voice and an agenda. We will no longer allow anyone to piss down our back and tell us it's raining. And we like guns too.

Install a fuel cut-off valve on the fuel line and let the engine burn the last drops of fuel in the carburetor at the end of the day, that's what we do to airplanes.

I always do that on my motor. On an outboard you don't even need a valve. Just disconnect the hose at the motor and let the gas run out of the carb.
