Sounds like the accelerator pump is not working, does the carb squirt a
little gas whenever you open the throttle? There could be a little ball
bearing missing that goes under the accelerator pump plunger inside the
carb, or possibly the linkage is out of adjustment.

It will idle now even in gear. I can give it gas slowly and it picks up fine. If I give it gas quickly it sputters like hell or completely shuts off. I HATE working on carbs. Anyone know what in the carb I screwed up to cause this? Thanks. - Duane
