Yamaha BRUIN 350 Water in tank?

Yamaha BRUIN 350 Quad

Hi, think water got into the tank, have managed to drain fuel (not the best experience) and empty the carb of fuel ........ so it starts now and runs however, it cuts out on fuel and won’t restart, it will restart on reserve ?  When I turn it off and back onto fuel, it will start again.  If I take for a short run on fuel it will cut out again and only restart on reserve 😳. Any ideas what else I can check.  Many thanks

I would guess that the petcock has water in there as well and could have started to corrode inside. I would drain the fuel out again and take the petcock apart and clean it out. Most likely going to clear it up.

Make sure the vacuum lines are also clear of water too
