What could possibly cause oil to soak spark plug. What's busted to let the oil into the cylinder? Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks Timid Soul

Too much oil... loose dipstick, fuel in the oil, or bad/faulty crankcase breather.

These Vangaurds have a problem with fuel leaking past needle in carb and filling up crankcase.

A broken piston ring could be your problem. Do a compression test or a leak down test to see the shape of the engine. Rick
