i would drain the carb and try to drain the fuel filter. fuel that sits in an above ground tank for an extended period of time (like say a week with ethanol fuel) it started to collect water. the water separator filter will do what it can but water still gets thru. especially after the filter is already full of water

shame on you for thinking you are God,no one is that good [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] you may have to pull the carb and clean it, water will cause problems, and can be a real pain to get out of all the passages, you may need to blow them out with carb cleaner and an air gun in case any dirt made it in as well.
