if its a thivk black, and when you pull it out after tryign to start it its wet then dryies, it doesnt smoek, then its got bad valve seals, if it smokes, then itll look the same as a leakign valve seal will, btu if its as you explain or i think it is then its gettign oil fouled. is it hard to start? if its hard to start its oil fouled and needs to be sanded down and cleaned

[coeydog]

yea its hard to start and after ran for about 10 minutes it dies, and pull the plug and its black smut, also if i started it and didn't keep the throttle up a little and it dies within just 30 seconds i pull the plug and it's black smut even after i just wire brushed it clean and shiney :?

does it smoek out the exhaust? check your oil level make shure theres nto to much
