So my parents spx started running like **** after it got water up to the drive shaft inside, we drained it and tried to get it back out but it only runs on the back cylinder, I tooled around on it for a while to see if it was just working something out and I figured out that it will start firing the front cylinder if I lean it way over to the right and do clockwise donuts, the second I try to straighten it out it bogs back down to running on only the back cylinder. I don't really know what to look for or change to fix this.

Re: Spx problems 787
Pretty wierd...
If it were mine, I would try running with the rectifier output wire disconnected. I dealt with one once that had bad wires between the stator and the rectifier. Those bad wires plus a little water caused some strange issues. You may even try disconnecting all the rectifier wires. Its been a while but I think there are 4 wires (3 yellow, 1 red-output).
Or, maybe water is inside the stator housing and leaning it running hard allows it to dry enough to run better. Removing the starter would let the water out. -
