    Tower hobbies .40 nitro aircraft engine. Is it gummed up?

    That would be the best thing to do. Everything was set back to factory? Does the engine have pinch? Was it knocking? It doesn't look that bad. Was the right plug in? Sorry have to ask..

To find out if you have a seal leaking or it's extra fuel being sprayed from carb.. you will need to break it down and check your bearings that are in the engine now... if they are good ๐Ÿ‘ then the oil/fuel...
