Carbon on No. 3 plug
« on: August 10, 2016, 08:21:21 PM »
I've checked all the spark plugs. They are all ok. But the No. 3 plug has carboned up dark brown colour. It's not wet. Any ideas?

sounds over rich,check float height,needle position,is the main jet in place,are all the other jets corrected and fitted correctly,


 swop the plug to another pot,and see what happens,
