Answer #2: There will be a little left but it isn't a little that you are worried about. The problem occurs when some evaporates and is replaced by more which then evaporates and is replaced........
Thanks Sam - what environment causes this?
Any engine with a vented carb (almost all) and a gravity feed gas line WITHOUT a shut-off......or the shut-off left open.
Gas evaporates pretty good down to about ZERO F or so.
It isn't nearly as likely to be a problem if there is a fuel pump OR if the gas tank is BELOW the carb.
Stabilizer still required though.
