Upon starting engine No. 1 spark plug oils up within seconds of igniting engine and misses. We have tested the spark plug and it fires, there appears to be nothing wrong with the spark. Also tried a brand new spark plug and it oiled in seconds.
The engines is dismantled, have checked the rings, piston, bore, valves, guides and seals. Cannot find the cause as far as we know there is nothing else to be checked we are dumbfounded as to the cause.
There is no water in the oil, no visual cracks in head, block and piston/s.
It is a 2003 model which we bought new and have only used it for approx 18 hrs.
Every thing appears as a new motor should.
Any ideas????
