I have a 300cc air cooled 2 stroke engine that starts right up when cold but is a bitch to start after it warms up. My ? is will a blown or leaking head gasket cause this problem? I have exhausted all other culprits and am left pondering about the head gasket. There is an oily residue around the front of the head and at first I thought maybe it was just from an exhaust leak but I really don't think there is a leak. Any thoughts or opinions on this?
