What ratio do you mix for the 295s, Do you still mix it 20/1 like it calls for. My left plug fouls out on me, but the right never has. Do they have different size main jets in the carbs, a bigger one on the left so it runs cooler?

Re: oil ratio for 295s
I think you'll want to go to 40:1 or 50:1 on your pre-mix.
I believe the two carbs are jetted differently, the 340/S certainly is. Go to the online service manual.
If the plug is fouling at idle or low speeds, it might just be an adjustment issue or a leaking choke plunger.
