I run Power Service at every fill up. Consider the cost of new injectors,actuators, easy $5000+.

I don't see any advantage to running it out of fuel, hope the filter is doing it's job!
You can just drain down the Davco, there is a purge valve on the bottom, push up and watch the level come down to the top of the base housing or until it starts pissing fuel. We usually fill at the same stop, 300 gallon tanks and run all week.Gotta love milk money!
It helps to know you are buying high quality fuel from a high volume stop. Less chance of water build up in their tanks, even then lower grade crack or crude will have all the junk in it.
