grease seals to fail or grease migration into areas that could damage components.
Putting more than three pumps of grease in a grease fitting could damage grease seals and cause premature bearing
failure.

Fouled spark plug is indicated by a wet, black appear-
ance. This could be caused by a dirty air filter element
or other restrictions in the air intake system. Incorrectly
adjusted valves, spark plug wire which are in poor con-
dition or poor quality fuel could also contribute to the
problem.
