[QUOTE="Lakeside53, post: 576495, member: 5264"] Running a saw dry (at idle) does run the carb out. It does not leave the internals in a dry condition conducive to rust... everything is still coated with a nice film of lube. Obviously if you are storing them for a long time, don't leave them in an unheated/humid garage - bring them inside the house/basement or wherever. Best thing - run them every 6 months or so with fresh gas, get them hot, and then shutdown and idle dry [/QUOTE]
