Re: Spark plug issue - any ideas?

The only way fuel gets into the oil is at the fuel pump, this is aplicable at any mechanical fuel pump for carbs. The pump should be in the left side of the engine(mine has a patch of steel there) and it's very accesable. take it of and see what you can change on it (probably the rubber gasket insid...

Re: Spark plug issue - any ideas?

As said before, if the carb adjustment dosen't work , then it must be the ignition. The Black substance on the spark plugs is the result of unburned fuel.Unburned fuel happens in two cases(usualy it's a combinations of the 2 factors): either the fuel mixture is to rich , or the spark is to weak to e...

Re: belt tensioner

It was a stupid thing , i know.The reason was lack of money and that the bearing didn't have any obvious play, only a sound of being worn and i didn't know that is so important (the car i had before was on chain). Anyway what was done was done , did you have a similar problem of heard of such?
