2 strokes are a little different then 4 strokes and cars... and just because it doesnt seize doesnt mean it wont ruin your piston and jug...

Uhhh, yeah you are gonna burn baby burn... Lean condition in a 2 stroke will smoke it in a minute. http://twostrokemotocross.com/2009/12/c ... nd-tuning/

Read and learn before you waste your time and efforts. :newb:

Just like saying running a engine on low oil wont spin a bearing or fry your piston rings. Why dont you just keep running it lean and let us know how it goes a thousand miles from now. I would bet my life that it will be ruined. Not only that but you loose power when running lean so whats the point? If your gonna come on here with the know it all attitude then goodluck getting help from anyone. 5 years is nothing in the mechanical world. Ive been wrenching my whole life since i was a little kid ive got 15 years into wrenching and i still learn new things ALL the time. Know it alls like you dont get very far in this life
