Thanks for all the great advise. The engine will idle all day long with no problems and so far the only deadstick I have had was when the throttle arm nut wiggled loose and the barrel stuck shut. :^) Hey at least it was a regular deadstick instead of a full power until the fuel runs out and then deadstick! Ha ha. I think the engine just isn't turning up. I'll start with a few props and get a cline once my airplane fund recovers. I know on my ST2300 it ran like crap when propped with a 18x6 wide at around 7300 rpm and then went to a 17x6 regular and it was screaming at 9K. Tons more power! I see alot of posts about many of the big two strokes being "luggers" and so far I am not convinced. Two stroke gas engine maybe. But so far I have found two stroke glows are just like the smaller engines they like the rpm. Seems like 7k anything is too slow. 8k or higher seems to be the sweet spot. I'll shoot for that.

BTW:
Does bambula make good firewood? :^)
