First you may want to check that the motor has roller bearings on the big end of the connecting rod, if it doesn't stick with glow fuel.
Tartans have needle bearings on both ends of the rod. Usual gas mix is not a problem. The carburetor will have to be changed to a gas carb. Otherwise the needle settings are very, very sensitive due to being enlarged passages for alcohol.
