I have a couple of older Tanaka 1.2hp motors and they both do the same thing, foul the plugs with wet oil after about 30 minutes of use.

Tried a lot of things already with no luck.

I switched to hotter and different plugs, no luck.
Changed fuel and mix and even mix ratio, no luck.

Looks a lot like "spooge" that you see in 2 stroke dirt bikes. Drops out of the exhaust when shut off.

Anyone else have this and figure out how to fix it? I am considering tearing one down and rebuild with new rings if nothing else works.
