Did you run your petcock on "reserve"? Water is more dense than gas, so it sinks to the bottom of the tank. The reserve stem inside the tank is on the bottom, while the main stem is a couple inches higher and will draw gas instead of water. I think they still sell "Dry Gas" an alcohol that mixes with the water and burns it.

For hydrolock, one or more float needle/seats has to be dumping raw fuel into a cylinder and that usually happens when the bike sits for a while and the petcock is messed up or left in the "prime" position.

Nope, bike was running in the on fuel position. I wasnt even that low on gas, I just wanted to fill up.

Still havnt gotten her back home. The popo called today to see if my bike was stolen, because the church called them concerned. My brother just laughed and told them my bike is broken. I might walk it home tonight, like 3 miles... cause my friend is being a douche about using his truck.
