Put 50:1 in a small tank of gas and try it, if it runs OK then start checking out your oil injection. there is a check valve in the oil line that can fail and push fuel into the oil. It is a good idea to change it during annual maintenance it is only 20-30 bucks.
If it still happens after adding oil to the then you need to look at your carbs.
Whatever it is you have to find it ASAP, it is doing damage every time it seizes up.
You only get a few times and it will be junk.
