You don't kill the motor by pulling out the choke do you?

Do you forget to take off the choke after starting?

Does this motor have an oil injection tank?

Change to a motorcycle 2 stroke oil and use the same mixing ratio.

Check that you are using the correct heat range plug.

I DON'T RECCOMMEND THIS BUT MANNY DO----
when stopping the motor shut off the fuel first and let the motor die by running out of gas.

I would be very wary of this shop----
