Two-stoke mower maintenance

Hi,
I have a '83 model Victa Charger that usually takes 20 or 30 pulls of the
cord to get going (that's fine - good exercise!) but has recently stopped
a
few times during the mowing.
After an hour then dipping the spark plug in petrol, it goes again, but I
noticed last time there was a lot of "soot" on the spark plug.
I can't really be bothered getting ripped off for a professional service,
so was hoping someone out there had some advice (or a URL with advice) on
DIY 2 stroke maintenance. The last proper service was about 10 years ago!
Cheers,
MK in Brisbane.
Sounds like the classic "worn out motor " to me.
A "Good service" won't fix that and if you have neglected it for 10 years
you should really consider a major repair or replacement.
