[QUOTE="reaperman, post: 86950, member: 6675"] Did you check or replace the points? They are very fussy on this engine, the gap is .025. I had the same engine on my old machine and it would act up, sputter, etc when the points needed adjusting. I think it wouldn't hurt to give it a old fashion tuneup with points, rotor, cap and condenser, and perhaps plugs/wires. As far as the carbon in the carburetor, have you checked the chock cable to make sure it is opening the chock all of the way and not just partially? If its partially closed it could explain why its running poorly after it warms up. [/QUOTE]
