I don't know if it's an oil issue or it needs a tune up but I'd appreciate any feedback.

That sounds like it has a clogged air filter and it is running over-rich air-fuel mixture. Take off the air filter for a minute and see if the problem goes away. If it does clean or replace the filter.

Take a look at the following websites and check out the missing elements, that would be an indication of what you are missing. As indicated by others a clean air filter and clean engine oil are the first things to look at, then follow the rest as indicated below:

It is dieseling, adjust the carburetor screw while it is running tell it sounds better if it still does it you need to clean the carburetor and air filter they may be plugging up.

Check the air-cleaner. It could probably use a tune-up too.
