Hello all tried again today to sort out fuel problem with 4lo it has 31k carbs it starts fine ticks over fine and up to about 6000rpm is a bit smoky then the right hand cylinder cuts out until you drop revs then it starts again struggling to say the least any ideas ?

Is it more smokey on the right cylinder and fouling that plug ?.
That would be crank seal letting geabox oil into the right cylinder ?.
What are the plugs like if you take them out directly after it drops to one cylinder ?.
Is the right hand plug dry or wetter than the left plug for example ?.

If it's more smokey on the right cylinder then it could be the crank seal.
Is it the same colour blue smoke from both sides or is the right hand side smoke a bit more white in colour ?.
