2 strokes you have to rev them skywards. They run rich otherwise. I have the crappiest snipper known to man, but it runs great. Nothing more then decent fuel and a decent pre mix. Same deal with my pos chainsaw. 2 stroke, decent pre mix, rev it to the moon and it loves it. Best not to let 2 stroke gear sit idling for prolonged periods. Same token, if they dont do the bluish smoke, check your fuel mix. I dont mix tanks when i fill my 2 stroke stuff. I have 2 fuel cans. The maths works out easier that way. A 5L jerry of 98, and a 5L jerry of 2% pre mix with 98.
