Make sure the carb. is clean. Take it off the engine and remove the bowl. There should be a small brass tube that sucks gas up in the center of the bowl, make sure it is not plugged. If it was clean then try turning out the mixture screw for high speed. If you don't know what one is what you can turn them by trial and error. If you turn it counterclockwise while it is running and it starts running rough then open the choke and it will eventually start running good with the choke open. Just play with it a while. Make slow adjustments so you don't kill the engine and it is quits then turn it back to where you last started it at.
