That's right Allan. Cranking the engine will speed up the bleeding but
is not required. I myself don't like the idea of running the cylinders
while 'dry' but I don't know for sure that it causes damage.
Leaving the fuel tank empty all winter might not be a great idea because
of condensation as well as rusting. Even if you don't get the Kubota
going maybe you could fill up the tank now; it will be one less thing to
do in the Spring and might provide some protection.
