Hello:
The fuel filter is new and there is no fuel pump.
The engine starts easily and will idle with the choke fully closed. If the choke is cut back the engine stalls. If the throttle is opened more the 1/2 way the engine stalls (this is with the choke fully closed).
Any attempt to close the choke will cause it to stall. Also it will stall on its own if it runs for longer than 5 minutes.
The one time the plug was checked after a stall the plug was dry with moderate deep black carbon deposits.
The carburetor was cleaned and rebuilt about 6 months ago. It is a Flo-Jet , medium 2-piece.
I'd appreciate any suggestions as to what to try next.
