Ok, checked the simple stuff. The screen in the carb is clean, so is the fuel filter. Float in carb, well it floats. Have a pretty good spark on all plugs. When I get a little free time, I'll pull the plugs and give them a look over. Will also try adding some lead substitite like Greenrules suggested. See if that helps.
Though I also noticed on the, I believe it's the governer (shaft in front of the engine that goes to the carb), where it attaches to the carb, the lever is a little loose. I thought of tightening it, but have no idea where it should be. Does anyone know what I'm talking about here? I'll be **** if I can explain it better. Though it may be why because this is not a solid connection, I have poor throttle response. (sometimes I increase the throttle, and if works ok, other times, no response)
