Is it sooty rather than oily? If so:

Carbon Fouled

Soft, black, sooty deposits easily identify this plug condition. This is most often caused by an over-rich, air/fuel mixture.
Check for a sticking choke, clogged air cleaner, or a carburetor problem - float level high, defective needle or seat, etc.
This may also be attributed to weak ignition voltage, an inoperative preheating system (carburetor intake air), or extremely low cylinder compression.


Probably carb running rich as fook:D

ok will try carb first

thanks for your information filled post! :)

Sooted up due to rich fuelling mate:) This sometimes happens on short runs with choke on so might be nothing to worry about.

ye i normally drive with the choke on most of my way to work in the morning till i feel its warm enough other wise its all jumpy after lifting off accelerator then back on ( like cuts out but stays on if you get me? :) )

thanks for the reply

looked in your profile matey and it says your using a big turbo, have you set the carb up for it?

[kial]

im not 100%sure on wat turbo onlly seen markings on the front of the turbo, from what i see its a t25 could be wrong tho, not sure i dont kno how to set the carb up to match the psi ect...... can anyone help..

My guess is its has a big main jet in it and also could have a larger venturi, aka the famous group A carb! Which isnt too good.
Have a read matey.
