Alex, what engine does this '88 have? If it is a series 92, be sure the dealer put in 40 weight (single, not multi-grade) when he changed the oil. These 2 strokes do not like multi-grade oil unless the temperatures are at, or under freezing for extended periods of time. A lot of un-knowledgeable mechanics will swear you can put multi-grade in a 2 stroke, but they are very wrong. Please, please verify what oil was put in.....there are only a couple of good heavy duty single weight (40wt).....Shell Rotella and Chevron Dello 100.
