On my 2800 Onan I just drain the carburetor bowl via the phillips screw in the bottom. Always works well. I've tried using Stabil and leaving some of the treated gas in the carburetor but would have a hard time starting the generator later on and I'd get backfiring too. I don't exercise the generator at all when it's stored inside my garage and have not had any problems with it starting months later and no backfiring.
