I have owned several of both.
The 4 is quiter and runs cleaner. No mixing. I have heard the argument about it having more torque or something and thus needing a smaller engine... but I am not sure I buy that argument. The 4 is heavier but they do have some newer "lightweights" that have come out. I have not used one though.
Another big plus of the 4 is the RPM you work at. My old 2 stroke really liked to be run wide open (as I undersatnd all 2's do). A 4 can really be run at any RPM just fine - which is great as my only use is for the dinkk and we often run at low speeds.
Going back, I would still buy a 4 because it is better on the environment, can run at lower rpms without issues, is quieter, and I do not have to mix the gas. The only thing I would change is I would probably buy a lightweight.
Just my opinions. Others may dissagree.
