The other guys are right on. It's the air/fuel mixture not the gas/oil mixture that is the problem. You have two solutions, adjust the richness or rejet the carburator. Since you want to use it at multiple elevations rejetting the carb isn't a very good solution. Hopefully your carb is easily accessable and you can merely make a quick adjustment at launch and be on your way.
I've had similar problems with my older gas auger and I used to work at a golf course at elevation (7000) and we had to rejet everything we had with a carb to make it run right.
