Got 2 basic culprits: burning oil and rich mixture. If it is burning oil you
gotta do rings, valves, etc. Mixture is carbs and being leak-free. Once you
get those taken care of it should be pretty good. A rich mixture will stink,
btw. A worn carb won't adjust right and will have to be too rich at operating
speed to be able to idle.
