Dump your oil and try again!
Excessive amounts of oil in the engine is paramount to blowing your gaskets, seals etc. Sounds like it built up extreme oil pressure and found the easiest way to shuck it-through the carb, hence lack of power. I surmize that the oil probably blew past the rings and was compressed out. Did you have oild residue coming out the tailpipe as well?

I've taken out the oil and replaced it with the correct amount of oil. Seems to run fine but I'll have to wait until thursday to give it a proper test.

Stuart,
Yes it looks like that is the case. I'll be taking it for another test run soon. I'll have my Cell phone and the number to CAA on speed dial with me too ![]()
