I have a 1998 1100 stx. It starts right up and overall it idle's and runs well on the trailer , compression is around 100 per cylinder.
connected to the water line on the trailer, I can run the rpm's up to 7000- 8000 no problem.
Problem: I put it in the water, attempt to accelerate and it stalls. It will start right back up. I was convinced I had a choke problem so I checked the choke cable and it is operating correctly. The only thing that is different from being on the trailer and in the water is the seats are on during water operation. ( of course I checked to see if I had anything clogged in the intake) This is driving me crazy.
I saw a similar post from a year or so with no replys.. ANYONE with any ideas will be much appreciated

Thanks

that's a most difficult one situation. I think nobody has answer for it or can say any solution.....
first of all you shuldnt have to put it in water.. water is always harmful for interior of cars.
