If you want the

solvent and then blow it completely dry with compressed air. You can't
leave a few drops of gasoline in any nooks, crannies or jets without
bad consequences.

That's technically correct but letting the motor run out of gas before
storage delivers most of the benefits with a lot less effort.
Stabilized gas can still gum up, it just takes longer.
