I'll try my Yamaha dry then - I started it up and turned off the fuel switch and waited for it to run out. It does indeed take a few minutes...
On my lawnmower that I use for 2 lawns, I am turning fuel off while STARTING the last lawn. The fuel in the bowl will run the engine for about 3 minutes under the load.
Also on restart, the small fuel line need couple of minutes to fill the bowl, so don't pull the rope without giving it some time.
And again, several Honda small engines I have all start on 1st pull 98 out of 100 times.
The cheap 2-cycle generator is more tricky.
