I have a question. Having been a proffessional mechanic for a lot of years, I never heard anyone say an engine runs "choppy". I've heard misses, run rough, backfires, stumbles, sluggish, etc, but never choppy. What the * is choppy?

It means the same as the other terms. It does not run smooth. Your getting cranky again Bear!

No, choppy describes nothing. Is it 4 stroking, one miss every 2 revolutions or is it an intermittent miss? But choppy tells you nothing to truly be able to trouble shoot the problem. :roll:
