"Hi,
Can somone please help me on afew things? First I just wanna know for sure what the fuel mixture is. And second, this motor runs quite well, but lately its just not going fast enough, it still starts on 1st-2nd pull. it feels like its trying to give but for some reason its wont. COuld it be the sparkplug, if so what type should I use? I'm a rookie at this so I really appreciate any help. Thanks"
 
"Fuel mixture is 50/1 (1pt

"Fuel mixture is 50/1 (1pt of 50/1 TCW-III oil to 6gal gas). A octane rating of 87 will be fine.

If you have compression and spark, the most likely cause would be a fouled, clogged carburetor."
