En-Route
One of my neighbors was injured in a construction accident 2yrs ago and is now confined to a wheel chair. The airport is paving the tie down area his plane is parked in and he was asked to move it. I volunteered to move it for him. I pulled the plugs cleaned them, could not get engine to start. Fuel is 2yrs old. So I pulled the plugs again thinking I flooded the engine. 4 of the 6 lower plugs were packed with what looked like carbon or rust. I then towed the plane to the new tie down spot and told him I would clean the plugs again today and try to start it for him. I also plan to drain some of the fuel out and put 5gal of fresh 110LL. Any ideas on what fouled plugs? My guess is rust. Any special thing I should try before trying to start engine again?
