Not a small engine expert but i can share what i have ran across with B & S engines

I do know that if the Air filter gets any kinda dirty ,then engine will run richer and foul the spark plug.
I assume you have tried a new /clean filter in it with an oiled prefilter.

Another common thing I find is the carburetor base gaskets fail.

Take the carburetor off and inspect the base gasket...clean the carburetor as well.
May even be a faulty Carburetor..

Hope this helps


Jim
