Question:

I have a YT42LS22 that runs very well but I have found a tar like substance pooling under one of the calibrators. This substance washes away with just water? What could be causing this?Thanks Ken

I don't understand what you're referring to here. Please clarify as I don't what calibrators you are referring to.(Carburetor, Valves, or something else)
