Yes, get it to start and run a bit, quite a few minutes if you can, and then pull the plug and show us what it looks like. If it's dark and/or wet it's getting too much gas. If it's bare and/or dry it's not getting gas. It's not your CDI, you have consistent spark right? You checked it against the valve cover?

That is not a normal looking plug. It does look like oil to me but too much gas could do that too. Is the exhaust blue, white, or no color? Does the exhaust smell like gas? Yes, your rings could be bad, if it were mine I'd check the compression, there's a tutorial under Engine. I'm still concerned about the gas in the vac line. If it were a vac valve on a gas line I'd say it was a bad diaphragm and leaking into the vac line. But vac fuel pumps can do that too. I'd run it a bit and pull the vac line that runs to the pump and see if there's gas in it. I'm just spit balling here, that's what you do with these things.

That is carbon fouled sooty like a chimney if it was oil it would be wet black and oily, Your way to rich.

Really no color, So if it's passing oil it's not much? gas smell yeah kind of,gas-see smell to it.
Before it stopped running if I stopped after awhile of running I would this intense gas smell, Like it was leaking gas. That's why decided to change the gas and vac lines. I ran into a buddy today that's a mechanic not like me Lol, He said to turn the A/F screw in all the ways and turn it out 1 see if it starts and if it doesn't keep going out in 1/4 turns until it does. Just looked at the compression test tutorial DAMN IT now I want that PIC. I think I have a tester around here somewhere will check and if I don't will the tutorial to make it.

Lot's more pics coming up. these pics are of TWO SPlugs, Old and new, Both for as long as I could keep it running. i.imgur.com/hDLsOdT.jpgi.imgur.com/MEWxdmT.jpgi.imgur.com/C1VLLu2.jpgStill getting a little gas out of the hose with the arrow, comes out about an inch and a half or so. Could not find compression checker. Will have buy one or make one |

@ Alleyoop "That is carbon fouled sooty like a chimney if it was oil it would be wet black and oily, Your way to rich.
"
So turn after 2 1/2 turns out, go back in 1/2 turn ?
Also should it stay running without setting the idle screw ?
As it is I have give it gas to get it to start, Tell me the video you want and I will make it.

There should be NO gas in the line with the arrow. That is the vac supply for the fuel pump. Gas is either dumping in from the carb or leaking back from the fuel pump. My guess is it's from the pump. Do you have a small implement that you could use the tank off of? Take the vac line off of the pump and plug it. Hook the carb fuel line up to a tank and position it higher than the carb. Start it and see what it does. That's what I would do. Rich

Someone else suggested a gravity feed too, More rigging :-). About the vac line , I personally don't think it's coming from the pump, the bottom of the arrow is lower then the top and I don't see any gas collecting there, just the first inch or so from the inlet pipe and both sides had a little gas but now just the top. Will try and make a video of it. Could the inlet pipe be cracked? , it does look it was hit by something, or rather the bar looks like was hit by something.

Where is the FUEL OUTLET CONNECTOR on the TANK, TOP OF THE TANK or the BOTTOM of the tank?
Was the Original fuel pump always in that spot? Also YOU CANNOT have a gravity FED system BECAUSE the TANK IS LOWER than the CARB yours needs a FUEL PUMP to pump fuel from low to high.

Just so there's no confusion, I was suggesting the gravity feed just as an experiment to see if the pump is the problem.

Ah yes, tie that sucker in back and have a line go straight to the carb DOWNHILL that will Verify FUEL OR NO FUEL.

Yep, Yep. but now I don't even think the first one was bad. have to fig out how to do the gravity one with what I have. Suppose I could go buy cheap brake line spice or maybe something like that. |

Here's the vac line video with ALL my mess ups, As you can see, there is not much in it. But you can see it ripple a bit.
3rd video.
Didn't think it sounded right at first, then I remembered to put the spark plug BACK in.
And this is the top vac line, I did notice about the same or less in the bottom one. (on the less side)
