A mod for Honda EU generator owners

352, I think I get it now -- if the amount of fuel remaining in the carb after you shut off the petcock valve is below the jets, then there is nothing left to cause the jets to clog. And logically, that has to be true, because the engine stops only when all of the fuel available to the jets is burned.

So the point of the petcock is to make it easier to end up with dry jets, instead of having to bother with draining the carb bowl.

I like this idea!
