Bob I had the same problem on mine, I replaced the carb and the next year it was doing almost the identical thing again. Long story short follow the fuel line from the bottom of the tank, if it goes into or under a cowl, on it's way to the carb, replace it. Mine had a small gash and was s#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&g air. Never had any problems after that
