    Crack in the dis cap or yeah the coil spray it all with WD40 and try it. Not too much aroun the cap ive seen a flame there before LOL. Water finds the flaws mate, electricity will take the easy way out and water is an awesome conductor.

    By removing the aircleaner yyou can access the idle jet. Its a small 8m/m headed with a screwdriver slot in it part going into the carby on the rocker cover side from memory. Remove it carefully and give it a good blow out with your mouth. There is a tiny hole on the end that quite often gets the tiniest bit of rubbish in there. Also disconnect the wire to the large electo shut off jet and make sure it clicks.
    All this is if you are running the standard carby of course!!!!
