There's an outside chance the spark plug had defect and was putting out a weak spark and causing the poor performance...also why it broke like it did ??

Hope this thread does no go on like the "rounded off drain plug" thread......
Only problem I have had with any B&S's are the stupid neoprene (rubber?) "O" ring they use for a needle seat in carb swelling up and not letting any fuel in... GRRRRR..... 20 cent part and our billion dollar alcohol fuel program screws it up........

I'm lost!
The title says it's a "stripped spark plug", now it sounds like it's not stripped at all!!
I don't know how anyone is suppose to properly answer something so confusing?

By reading the OP's description would be a good start. It took me a couple of reads but then figured it out.

Change "striped" for "broken" and it reads fine.... Yeah my first though was threads in head were toast....

Sorry - for some reason it was in my head as a "stripped" plug when I wrote it. But its not, its broken at the threads, even with the head.

I'd take a propane torch, heat the plug, let it cool and turn it out. Get it fairly hot...
