Sounds like either an exhaust leak or a lifter issue.

I didn't watch the video, but if it is an exhaust leak, it would explain why it goes away when it warms up. Things expand when warm. There are a couple different ways to check for a leak, but I don't recall exactly which products to use and I don't want to tell you to dump the wrong thing down your carb, but somebody will know and chime in.

Just sounds like it. Probably a lifter tho. What oil do you use?

The one I've heard of more than once is Marvel Mystery Oil. Engine running, pour some in the carb and white smoke will come out any exhaust leaks. Look in the Marvel Mystery Oil thread from recent and the info is in there.

Ah now it makes sense that it goes away after being warmed up

While we're on the subject, and I'm not trying to get you to change the oil you use, but oryllies has a deal right now where you can buy 5 quarts of casterol gtx high mileage and their house brand filter (allegedly made by Wix) for $25

There are 100 different opinions. I use 10w 40 and have always put casterol in everything I own. 10 different people will give you 10 different answers.
