Plug chops are for two strokes.
Sounds like carb trouble to me. Running too rich. Either the floats are set too high, A/F mixture screw is set wrong or crud in one of the jets. Pull it apart & give it another good cleaning. Also, make sure the air filter is clean.
As for the clutch adj. Loosen the locknut, turn the screw CCW until resistance is felt, turn it CW 1/8 of a turn & retighten the locknut.

Did you put a new plug in it? If you didnt, do that first.
