Bloke down the road from me has filled up with derv, I've drained the tank and refilled with fresh gas, only problem is the carb drain screws have been chewed up in the past and being a v-twin (1100 Dragstar) theres not much chance of tapping them round without removing the carbs (something I'm not prepared to do just incase this little bit of help turns into a nightmare)
I've had it sort of running by squirting easy start down the air intake, I know its only burning the easy start but at least its drawing the derv out of the float bowls at the same time. Question is how bloody long is it going to take to get enough fresh fuel into the bowl to run.
Am I knocking my head against a brick wall or do you think it'll clear itself?

Complete fabrication, I didn't make it up!
