But what fouled the plugs in the first? Any vehicle that I have had and it has set up over a month , I pull the plugs and hand crank the engine. I know that then, the rings have not seized and that I have clean plugs put back in for that first crank. Maybe the next time you put it up for over a month , pop the plugs yourself and clean them off and then crank it up. I think that what happens is the gas left in the cylinder breaks down and then waters the plugs with a nasty mixture and then the plugs will not fire and then snowballs from there....Skip...
