talk about response time..

In the amount of time I was able to remove the plug, drive to Lowes, buy a plug, look at some electric lawn mowers, buy a CFL bulb and drive back you all answered and even managed to deviate from my original post

lol

I sprayed some carb cleaner in the carb and then put in the new plug..It fired up with a crap load of smoke.. But its running normal now...
