Hey how many km on it? Did you see oil in oil cleaner? I saw it in my and after some research assumed that piston rings are worn and I have pwer lose up hill even after all vacuum hoses restored. When I first picked it up hoses were cracked and eaten by mice and I drove 100 km on almost 80 L of gas. Also small nozzles from ported vacuum switch on top of thermostat housing was broken off. Dirty carb and bad plugs.
