Default Brainstorm 2-stroke bogging with me....

First clear your mind of everything, last night's beer, women, house payments, etc

OK now: Say you have a new 2 stroke engine that starts happy as a lark with full choke when cold. But is very cold blooded. Takes 10 minutes to get warm and runnable, but choke still needed. Seems to have sufficient power, but is still breaking in.

Runs fine for 30 minutes at almost full open choke, but still need to be ginger with the throttle. Then when engine is hot, can not go to full throttle or engine bogs and drops right off.

Am I too rich or too lean?
