What's wrong With New Grubee GT5 2 Stroke?

[Deleted Member 4613]

I'm reading more complaints about the new GT5 2 stroke from grubee, carb problems, throttle bogging, blown engines and seals. Are these engines any good, and what would be a good replacement? What's the best 2 stroke out there?

One over the other?? They are all just Chinese Junk. With that said I've bought 5 all from Ebay, lucky for me I haven't had one that I couldn't get to run correctly and stay together. There are a number of things (upgrades) that are very inexpensive that I do to ALL of them the moment they are unpacked. First one, (still running) I bought on 3/2009. One can't just install out of the box and really expect it to stay together. Some do but most won't.
