Bought her last fall and she would always start right up. I winterized with rv antifreeze and fogging oil.
Went to start her up this spring and she fouls up plugs with oil. I can dribble some fuel down her and she'll fire right up but die quickly.
Im guessing that the crank seals allowed oil to fill the crankcase.
Ok so simple fix is to put an oil valve in-line to shutoff oil when she sits for a while..
But how do i go about getting her to clear out the oil? Cant get her started long enough to burn it off. Maybe its starving for fuel?
Most of the grey lines were already replaced but i had to replace 1 or two last fall. Replaced fuel selector (had the green goo).
I did not rebuild the carbs. Could the little internal filters be clogged?
Any other ideas?
If i do crank on the starter with the plugs removed, how long is safe?
Thanks all!
