Ok guys just after a bit of an idea on where to look at my vit, this last weekend on a camping trip my vit started getting misfire/ loosing power/ couldn't rev at times, seems to be when going up extended hills on the road, Doesn't feel like an ignition misfire, done the rev it and smother with rag trick a few times hasnt helped? Do i need to take the whole carby off to access the fuel bowl (standard mikuni carb) to see if debris (or maybe float level jamming or something?) or other idea of maybe water contamination in fuel if the tank pickup is towards the back of tank?

Any ideas would be really appreciated, since im not in best state of mind at the moment, had a bit of a meltdown infront of everyone (i was meant to be leading the group of 6 cars loaded with friends from the chinese church i go to including my girlfriend and one of the preachers) so not my proudest moment

excellent u figured it out. ive had screwed fuel and it fkd everything front to back, had to replace tank lines and blast shit outta the carby. I should have replaced the fuel pump too as now i think it plays up a bit when its hot.
