spark plug

[kannuki]

i have a 1987 foorce 125 i just put new plugs in and took it for a test and brought bak to shore pulled the plugs to check them and i found the #3 cylinder was wet with oil but all the other cylinders where burning good. checked the coil and had good spark. could it be a blown head gasket?

Re: spark plug

It could be a bllown head gasket or exaust port plate gasket,if the "wet" isn't oil,but rather, water.<br />Run a compression test. It will tell you more than anything else you can do at this point.<br />This engine needs frequent decarbing, and new plugs every 80 hours or so of operation.
