Darn, with so many daily riders it's hard to decide which one to jump on next.;)

Lighten up. Life's too short to be so bitter. If not then when you die you'll be required to ride an L for eternity.

Bitter? No just amused. How can anyone ask for help, show a picture and not even focus the camera? Oil or fuel fouled, there is a huge distinction in what it means for the engine, and it only takes a glance to tell the difference, if the guy asking for help had bothered to use the camera correctly. Just funny that anyone could be so helpless. He still hasn't mentioned which cylinder it is. And yes, that also matters.
You guys can play 50 questions all you want, I'm done with this one.Comment

Mr.Mom
Woohooo found the issue! It was most assuredly gas fouling. I plugged the vacuum line and ran it on prime. Poof problem gone and the plug is nice and carbon clean. I had no idea a plug could fail so fast.
Thanks for your help!

Glad you got it fixed.
Now get a better camera or tkent02 will come smack you down.

No, his camera is fine. It's the photographer that needs work.Comment

If there was that much gas getting into the vacuum line to foul the plug and depending how long the bike has been sitting idle with gas seeping through, you should check your oil and see if it has any gas smell to it.Comment
