I'm doing heat cycles, so always have a very close eye on it with a temp gun.

I thought it best I take the clutch shoes off... in case they pinged off!

I never let it run out of fuel as I don't want it running lean, but I struggled with this concept while packing up for the day, as I always burn the remaining fuel out...

Oh and put a filter on it too before you start it, never run without, ever
Agreed!
