Default 2 Stroke Engine Trouble

AT Parowan last June, one supper conversation with three owners of
powered single seaters detailed two propeller problems (manufacturer
took a season to sort out) and one battery failure (expensive) --
unusual, I suppose. But not engine problems, eh?

Why are these two stroke engines so notoriously unreliable?



I have been flying with sustainer engines (Solo 2350) for more than 10
years in a Discus bT, Ventus2cT and DuoDiscusT and never had a problem
with it.
Most of the times engine problems are the cause of bad maintenance or
incorrect use of the engine.
