Stalls when I put it in gear. Also when I'm idling for a min or 2 then I put it in gear she just bogs down. Sometimes she gets over the bog and I can go. But other times she dies on me. Then when I go to try and start it again. The rpms shoot up sky high. Might be something to do with my trottle. Any help would be appreciated.
 
I can not see or hear your motor.-----So what are the compression numbers ?----Does spark jump a gap of 3/8" on both leads ?----Have you tried opening low speed mixture screw 1/2 turn ?
 
110psi both. Good spark. But I think I may have found my problem. The fuel line going from the pump to the carb had a Lil kink in it. Plus I might have been a Lil lean. So the kink in the line plus running a Lil lean might have done it. I took er down the river today. Ran good on 20min run.
