Throttle Trouble please help!

Are you still running the kit sparkplug? They foul easy. If you are using 16/1 mix it will foul quickly, I start a new engine at 24/1 then after a couple of tanks go to 32/1.

I mixed a half gallon of gas to 3.2ml oil. I am still using kit spark plug. I'll go pick a better one up. Reccomendation?

 

[Greg58]

The most commonly used plug is the NGK B6HS , stock number 7534. Gap the plug around .28 and try it.

That mix doesn't sound right, are you sure?

 

[Greg58]

For one half gallon you should use about 89 ML.

 

[Greg58]

If you used 3.2 oz to a half gallon you're good.

 

[JoeyTroy518]

I'm sorry, that's what I meant. 3.2 FL oz

I would try a new plug, I've got some kit supplied plugs that don't reach the bottom of the threads in the head.

You mixed it in the gas tank and not a gas can...Right???

If you did, that was the totally wrong way to do it...You cannot do a thorough shake it up altogether mixing.

Always mix in at least a one gallon gas tank and shake it thoroughly and then pour it into the tank...You always shake that gallon gas can everytime you top off the tank as well...Once you finally get the motor broke in, then change your mix to 32:1 mix which will be 4 ounces oil to 1 gallon of gas.

I mixed it by way of shaking, in a gas can. Then poured in tank
