Is it cold where you live? i'm wondering if your fuel is geling, this will make the engine work hard to get fuel and it will rev up and down while starving. Have you added any fuel stabilizer?

Sounds like air leaking into the suction side of the fuel system. Check you fuel lines or hook the engine to a jug of fuel and see if it smartens up.
