Assuming this is a model with a carb… Turn fuel off at peacock valve on tank. Disconnect fuel line at carb. Ring clamp most likely. Pull fuel line out as much as you can and point into a reservoir and turn peacock valve on tank to “on”.
Watch the fuel coming out. Petcock valves often disintegrate a bit and that crap goes right into the carb. This can cause issues. May also be a gummed up carb. Usually they will start and backfire a bit but stall out when you give throttle.

just added some fuel treatment and going to sit overnight...can't figure out how to drain gas
Pointless if more than a few months old.
Disconnect line running from tank to carb.
Route into jug. Cycle key to cycle the fuel pump. When empty, add a gallon of fresh gas, and a small amount of xylene (or berrymans gas treatment if you dont have it). Start and allow to idle.
If it dies soon after, likely idle air control.
