Default Carb cleaner fuel additive that works?

I do run the engine dry of fuel with stabil mixed but don't drain the bowls.
I will check to see if there are accessible screws at the bottom of the
bowls. I had thought that the stabil would keep the fuel in the bowls
"stabil" as per the stabil 800 line, but I would rather remove as much fuel
as possible.


I'm not sure that Stabil will do anything in regards to evaporation,
and what's left over from that evaporation. I do know that it does work
in keeping gas that's left in a tank getting "stale" as it is generally
called.
