Hi Iratz
  I have an old industrial Case it get used about 2 to 3 times a year I used to have the same problem you did I now put just what gas I think i will need to do what ever I am doing & when I am done & know it will be a while before I use it again I disconnect the gas line & drain the gas from the tank & carburetor have not had that problem since I have been doing this for about 5 years. Hope this helps Big Dean
