I have a nearly new out of warranty Echo GT-225 that I guarentee has had an issue since new hence why I got it with rotten fuel and a bad carb. The OEM carb pumped epic proportions of fuel into the crankcase to a point you simply could never start it. I replaced it with my carburetoer for testing and got it to run. It runs very well but will not start reliably. It will wet foul the plug. The magneto gap is perfect, and I installed my air filter.
It usually starts stone cold just fine, but when hot or warm it will wet foul. I already inspected the muffler and it is spot less.
Any ideas? I have it narrowed down to a leaky crankcase.....or a weak mag / flywheel., even thought the spark is perfect.
