One of the problems in that the Honda generators have a combined fuel and engine shutoff device. On my eu1000i I moved the engine shutoff to a separate switch. This allows for running the carb out of gas. Chris
Another way to go is to drain the carb bowl via the drain plug in bottom of bowl, if the carb has one. My Honda 5hp air compressor engine's carb has the drain plug and is easily accessible.
