'49 Cub has had a lack of power, despite new points, condensor, plugs, plug wires, carb. rebuild and removing the slack from the governor linkage. Based on info. on this site, thought I'd try the air cleaner pipe to see if it was clogged. The oil in the bottom of the air cleaner had water in it! That might explain why it ran better when warmed up (the ice melted?). Ran very well with the oil cup removed. Hasn't been run in the rain or snow. Stored inside. Where's the water coming from? Looks like chocolate milk, similar to water in the transmission. Oil was new 1 month ago. Any advice? Thanx.
