You may have the low speed mixture screw a little bit lean

Adjust the low speed screw to where you get a good transition to high speed

The Align starter is mighty expensive

A good battery is just as important

And get the carb hissing wet before you try to start. Once fuel is in there, these engines are first flip starters.

I would not draw any conclusions about fuel mixture from oil spots under the plane.

There are too many other variables.
