Thanks for your response. The plugs are all fouled about the same. They have a black deposit on them, smelling of gasoline, that completely coat the plug porceleun and gap area. No oil is visible that I can tell. The tractor does smoke when it is running and has strong gas odor, especially at low speed, like just idling. I have thought about getting a new carb for the tractor, or a rebuilt one, but have not been able to find a rebuilt one and haven't checked if a new one is available. The tractor is about a 1973 model with low hours on it. It ran fine without this problem a few years ago, but when this started (for whatever reason), it has been a constant problem. As I mentioned, it will run fine for a while, a couple of weeks or so, and then the fouling of plugs require that they be removed and cleaned or replaced. Thanks for your help and your ideas.
