Like I said, the best thing you can do is just not let it go all the way to on (well, the best thing to do is make sure you have plenty of fuel!). If the lever is ever so slightly past straight down it will allow it to drain from reserve, or it did on my sons bike. I keep it about 75 degrees on, if that makes any sense.
