This is a 1982 or 83 I think. It sat for 13 years. I fogged the engine. I replaced bulb& hose. New gas. It wouldn't start. Replaced the fuel pump diaphragm and gasget Cleaned carb and got it to run. Took it to lake it took about 10 min and the motor was running good for about 15 min then died. Wouldn't restart. Took it home recleaned the Carb, put sea foam in the gas. Got it running let it run for 40 min, all is well. Took it back to the lake, it ram great for about 30 min and died. I'm thinking particles from the foam liner in the hood got in, I've since removed the liner and cleaned the inside of the hood good. Re-cleaned carb and Still didn't start. I but in 2 new plugs and it started but would die if I wasn't pushing the throttle on the carb. After a while it ran some but not as it should and then died and is t restarting, it's trying. I did clean the fuel line filter too. Any suggestions?
 
After setting that long, I'd check the fuel pump diaphragm.
What's the RPM in gear?
No tach? Tiny Tach about 15-25$ just wrap the wire around the plug wire.
