Mixture is very important, but it cannot be responsible for empty 
float bowls.  If your float bowls are truly running dry then you need 
to fix that problem first.  OTOH, it may just be that all the fuel 
evaporates before you get the covers off the carbs.  This can happen 
in just a few minutes with a hot engine.
