Defective oil seals and gaskets or 
cracks in castings are the usual 
causes of leaks. Such faults allow 
supplementary air to enter the 
engine and upset the fuel-air 
mixture.
This makes adjustment of the 
prescribed idle speed difficult, if not 
impossible.
Moreover, the transition from idle 
speed to part or full throttle is not 
smooth.
The crankcase can be thoroughly 
checked for leaks with the 
carburetor and crankcase tester 
and the vacuum pump.
