I would rather not have to turn a valve to let my carb run out of fuel after the season is over. Does anyone know of a inexpensive 12V solenoid valve that can be placed inline with a separate fuel electric switch?

Run the tank dry. Shouldn't use gas that has been in all winter unless you use a very good stabilizer.

With this solution you would have to add a switch to cut the power and still let the engine run. Seems like a lot of complications to avoid closing a manual valve. I have a valve on a mower and have never used it. I just run the tank dry at the end of the year.
