farmallkid, On LP tractors It doesn't make a hill of beans in difference! For there is NO solenoid fuel shut-off. Hence when you kill the engine for longer than saaay.....time to eat lunch, shut off thr valves.
On the question of whether to simply kill the engine or burn the line dry. That may be more of a question to the quality of the LP system than personal prefference. ie....
For a bad diaphram can cause a flooded situation if the tank valve is left on. So shutting the valve off, then rolling the engine over, then open the valve (slightly) the engine will usually start, finish opening the valve and one is good to go.
As a rule most LP systems will seep/leak out what is between the valve and carb overnight. Hope this helps!
Later,
John A.
