What carb do you have on it?
 
hi phill2... its a walbro 216 it says on it .theres no other markings on it ..I've just done a fresh mix of fuel and gona see how it behaves .. I'll post my results later on ..and thanks for a reply m8
 
results are in lol.. its running the same as before. ive noticed a slight air leak on exaust manifold even tho its just had 2 new gaskets on .. and the gasket seal between engine and cylinder head. seams to be tacky like as tho fuels melted it if you know wot i mean.. it all worked fine untill i had to change the is it pinion gear and the rear diff. had some spares. so put that on... also ive fitted a fg fuel tank with new lines fitted .cleaned and checked the small pin hole breather. on the cap too.since fitting these parts its just run poop and loads of smoke & oil coming out of exaust pipe. so ive decided to take engine out and strip it put new gaskets and maybe a new piston kit...and new plug . if i renew the piston only. do i have to run the engine in like you do on new ones. thanks .........
 
the gaskets mainly the cylinder part was wet through and degrading also insulater gasket was wet too.. piston looks fine all shiny ect cylinder same ..just thought i would let u know ...
 
thats a good one phill2 . i think new gaskets n carb gaskets should do it. i hope lol.. as it starts up ok and ran fine before. well fingers crossed it all works fine after doing new gaskets. thanks for your replies mate .
