i have a two stroke 2 cylindar snowmobile sled runs awsome normally ran last week when i uncovered it for the past 2 days ive been trying to start it and nothing i checked the carb spark compression pulled the carb appart cleaned it rebuilt it you name it the last thing i thought was water in the gas noticed that today. two days worth of trying to pump this bad fuel into my sled some how water made it into my gas tank i dont know how its new gas but anyway how the hell can i fix this i already drained the gas tank. now what????????
 
go get some new gas and get a bottle of seam foam.pour it in there,not the whole bottle of it,maybe a 1/4 of it and try cranking it up again.and let it run to burn the water out.good luck.

I hate it when that happens, it was 1988 running one of the ISDE races in Nor Cal it was raining hard and the river was at full crest, caught something in the bed and down I went, the old Honda gulped up all the water the barrel and carb could handle without sending the rod out the bottom of the case at those RPMs, dragged it to shore flipped it upside down removed the spark plug and kicked it over till the water was gone and I smelled gas, replaced the plug and still went on for a 3rd place finish, if you know you have no more water in your fuel you have other issues bro.
 
I almost gurantee you burnt up the jugs.The ethanol will burn up the jugs.You have to mix a little Marine fuel stabilizer in your gas or it will burn it up especially if it sits for a while.If you ran it last year or this year with no fuel stabilizer it ain't good.
