Is this the dreaded "4 stroking"?

That is my suspicion from the way it's been running and now all the oil in my exhaust. Guess I need to order some seals.

sounds like a corked up pipe. a true four stroking is when your 2 cycle is firing every other revolution like a 4 stroke engine does. a bad cdi box, stator problem or overly rich mixture is the usual cause. here is a example of cdi induced 4 stroking. when you give it throttle the engine does not increase in speed with the throttle. cause of this was bad primary and secondary source coils on the stator. a really really plugged up pipe can cause this too.


this is after repairs were made, note the way it idles now with a proper 2 stroke idle and how it revs.

Roger that and thank you Bigdog for the videos! Mine idles rock solid at 1500 and revs great but when you try to hold it at a steady RPM is what I was doing in the video. I ordered the crank seals and will at least change out the right side since I believe it's ingesting oil from there since my exhaust is getting full of oil, my plug has oil on it too as you can see from the picture I posted.
