Worked good last week. Put in new fuel today, fired up quick, but was "missing", puffing a wisp of white smoke. Warmed up a bit and stopped smoking, but would not reach a "smooth" top speed, appeared to be struggling and never reached "normal" top speed. Struggled to cut any grass.
Pulled the plug which appeared "wet and sooty". Put in a new plug, gapped at .020 and it ran better for a few minutes then started stalling out. Restarted a few times and still would not "max out" for speed and struggled to cut.
Pulled the plug and it appeared to have sooted up already, not even 5 minutes of running. But only on one side of the plug. Pictures attached.
