[QUOTE="JMichael, post: 294267, member: 7544"] I've got to disagree with you on this. When oil burns in a combustion engine, it produces a white smoke with a very light blueish tint. That's the reason you see white smoke from the exhaust of all 2 cycle engines whether it's outboards or gas weed trimmers. If in doubt, get your lawnmower running and drop a few drops of oil down the carb. Constant black smoke while running from a combustion engine is a sign that it's running too rich. If it only produces the black smoke at startup, it was slightly flooded. If your engine is getting flooded (and it sounds like it is from your description) after one pull and you're not using the choke, I would guess that it's either running too rich or the air flow to the engine is being restricted (like a dirty air filter).
