Greetings all.

I experienced some major hesitation last night while coming to an end of a 500 km day. While at long periods of steady cruising I took my foot of the throttle for a second, then accelerated and found a 3 to 4 second delay. This started to get worse, so I pulled over. Stalled. Fired it up and still rough so I lifted the deck lid and revved the throttle a few times. Seemed to clear up. Checked the archives and found many similar senarios and possible solutions, but no definitive answers. Has anyone found the fix? Still 800 Km from home. Any suggestions much appreciated. Thanks.
