Yes stabilizer does help.
I have the same troubles where I live with the snow blowers.
I have found that when I drain the fuel as you stated above I have the same troubles.
Now I use the stabilzer and a little fuel injector cleaner in the gas and and dont drain at the end of the year.
I found that even with running it out of fuel, enough stays in the carb to dry up and turn into varnish.
Starting it up once or twice in the off season helps a bit also.
