Default 83' 185s Wont Start

What's up fellas. New guy here, just wondering if a spark plug is getting oil on it can that be the cause of it not firing up,
and is that an easy fixer upper? Any help with this would be appreciated. She looks like she has potential so I would like to restore her.
Is there any info on converting a pull start cord with a Kick starter instead? Anyone has wiring diagrams on this trike would be nice, my lights are not connected. My manual is on order so I'll try not to freeload on someone to bad. Sorry for all the questions.
Late

yes oil on the spark plug will foul it out... and cause it not to start... there is NO WAY AT ALL to make the pull start to kick unless you put a different motor in it... about the oil it can be either that the people or you who ever had it before ran it low on oil then put some back in it. Or rings are goin bad. Or your valve seals are goin bad. Most likely its your rings going bad you could fix this fearly easy...
