Hey guys,
I tried to start my XB12S today, and it won't have any of it. It's not that cold about 37degrees out, It's trying to fire but almost sounds like just one cylinder trying to do the work. I know this has been talked about before, but like everybody knows the XB board is down, any suggestions?

I had the same thing at 30 degrees. It would turn over but not start. Plugged it into the charger and off it went.

After washing mine today, it sputtered and briefly ran on one cylinder till I shut it off.

Yep, It was a fouled front spark plug, fired right up after cleaning it off.
Thanks

After sitting for 4 1/2 months, the 9S fired up like a charm! (i had the battery on a tender all winter) I couldnt resist and took it for a spin around the neighborhood uninsured...
I put on a Drummer, so its very sweet sound!
