The sled runs good cold for a minute or so and then power gets real bad and the sled sputters and backfires.
i've tried a different ECM with the same effect.

I took the motor apart and the top end was pretty bad so i bored it and put .020 over pistons. It still does the exact same thing !?!

I can swap it over to carb quick and try that but is this a symptom of center crank seal leaks?

we had one that did that. ate spark plugs. turning down the oil injector helped a lot, maybe ours was shot and pumping too much oil, idk, long time ago..
