sounds like somethin blocking or plugged in the idle circut.........maybe remove idle screws and try air pressure...or have to disassemble and re clean.

will it stay running if you turn up the main idle screw?

Check for a vacuum leak, that will keep it from idling.
Will it idle if you close the choke flap part way?

Yea suppose that could be it Doug. Had a hard
time finding out where it was coming from though.
Is there suppossed to be a spring or check ball that goes under that 'screw squirter?
Thanks - MIKE

if you turn the main idle screw to the point were throttle blade open past the point of the little slot in the throat...your out of the idle circut and it should start running right and idle speed should pick way up, ..if not, theres a blockage somewere or lack of fuel from float problem or major vacuum leak.
