Its a carbed 97 model,strangely, knowing they are difficult to start in the cold almost reassures me its not too serious a problem
Also had a look inside the tank,from the odometer I'd say Ive done 40 miles out of a full tank,the fuel level just covers the pipe visible beneath the cap.
Is there anything I can do(other than to drain all the fuel-something I've never had to do),perhaps an additive to the petrol to kick start it,basically something that a techno-moron like me could easily do to help get it going.
If a month is too long I'll take this as a lesson and turn it over more often
