Thanks for the info. I will give that a try.

Ive read some other posts and some people have mentioned the breather possibly being clogged. I followed the rubber tube from the carb to the breather and its connected to a small plate that is bolted onto the engine directly under the gears that the starter attach to when cranking the engine. If i decide to open it up what should i be looking for that would indicate it is blocked?
