    umm well maybe you are getting less air now for some reason, clean your air filter and then try it out.

    if its a thivk black, and when you pull it out after tryign to start it its wet then dryies, it doesnt smoek, then its got bad valve seals, if it smokes, then itll look the same as a leakign valve seal will, btu if its as you explain or i think it is then its gettign oil fouled. is it hard to start? if its hard to start its oil fouled and needs to be sanded down and cleaned
