DO NOT USE ND-30 oil (non detergent oil) in any engine.....

oil filter or no

Black is a rich condition..... what you need to do is go ahead and soak the carb, get a carb kit (with gaskets and the diapragm) and then blow it out with compressed air through all holes....

For oil..... use a HD-30 (high detergent) above 40 degrees F, 5w-30 or 10w-30 below 40..... or 5w-30 or 10w-30 synthetic all year round.

btw, its not called carb acid..... its called carb cleaner..... soak it in carb cleaner... the needle settings are 1.5 turns out from all the way in as a baseline.
