if the carb you put on there is good and clean( pilot jet and air screw). i'd check the electric throttle control and make sure you have a 1/8" gap.
then make sure you have the carb mounted all the way in the intake boot and tight.
does the engine have good vacuum?? cover up the air intake with your palm and should kill the engine , if not you have a vacumm leak.
strong spark? fairly fresh plug??

the carb is brand new and i tried the air intake and it seems fine and the throttle controller isn't the problem. my repair man looked at it through and through. i put new plugs in and tested them. idk what the problem is the carb is mounted like it says to in the Manuel.
