Well, I measured the output today it's @2cc/6 min.
when I left work, I didn't need to use the choke, so I didn't.
She still smoked above 3000rpm for the first 2-3min.
Would not having a thermostat have anything to do with this problem?
It never warms up past the first mark.

It didn't have a thermostat in it when I got it.
I guess I should put one in.
yes, ^4000 it smokes. after 3-4 minutes it stops and I can
go all the way to buzzz (oops! shift!) without smoking
I guess I'd better start looking for parts?

What type of oil do you use for premix? And what ratio do you premix at?
