Michael,
It could be ignition. It also could be that you need a little heavier
oil in the dashpot/dampers. Try going up a wt or two from what ever is
currently in there. The "standard" is 20 wt motor oil, but each engine
has it's preferences, depending on engine tune & carb jetting. It's an
easy thing to try. Or try setting the jets a couple of flats richer. A
turn could be momentarily causing a lean condition. Both of the above
might help.
