bigTrev is on a distinguished road
First spin of the year & my xtx is sick !

Decided as the weather here was good, i,d take the xtx out for a short spin round the roads. all was going ok until about 3 miles out, on changing down it just died ! restarted fine but under power it just splutters and cuts out then goes a few hundred yards ok, then splutters and bangs again. ticks over and revs ok when stood still. It was going fine when i parked it over winter, what im thinking is could condensation have gotten into the tank somehow? its behaving like theres water in the fuel ? i intend taking the tank off tmw and draining the fuel out, how do i get the fuel to flow from the tank? as theres no tap there. cheers for any thoughts on this.
