The only problem besides adding a timing retard device is that in a standard 2 cycle configuration the exhaust is on top of the piston. As the HHO explodes you get water vapor. The excess water that did not get blown out of the exhaust would accumulate around the piston causing corrosion. Also we have the issue with lubrication. without some sort of oiling system it would fail rather quickly since we dont have the oil gas mixture.
I have ran a weed eater on HHO before for short bursts, so it will work but not for long.
