    hmm....to small of a main jet? carb needle clip to low of a notch? air/gas mixture screw wrong? to hot of a spark plug?

    it sounds like you do not have a nuff comprestion,i would check that first it should be around 100.

    compression

    it's got enough compression i think. blows my thumb off the sparkplug hole on top of the jug. i don't know a lot about two strokers. haven't tried to put a gauge on it yet. the carb might definitely be where it's at! i don't know sqaut about carbs either!

    I would run a compression test befroe you do anything else. That blowing your finger off the spark plug hole is a waste of time. I got burned by that test once and bought a couple parts I didn't need.
