Dreaded Briggs Flat Head Gas/Oil Spitting into carb

[jakesmurray]

Also, here is a thought. Could I hook my little bottle up to the engine again, then once it spits all of the extra fuel/oil it should run correctly with the breather tube hooked up right? Or I could pull the drain plug and take out the extra fluid I guess...

The fuel thins out the oil. Drain the oil out.

Ok, yeah it's about the consistency of gasoline now...

Not really. You have more power than the gas. A better test is to turn it upside down and blow into the fuel inlet. If you cant blow then its working.

Ahh, never thought of that. Stuff like this is why I love forums.

I'll update this thread when I get to look at this thing.
