Default Re: Engine dies under load.

Jerry can must have a breather hole or open top. Try a new batch of fresh gas. Make sure the hose you are using is genuine gas hose, not something laying around. Do the other stuff I mentioned. Just to repeat: there is "float level". There also "float drop". Do you understand what that is? Carb upside down with float hanging down and take measurement. You have to get them both right. Make sure you are reading the paper gauge correctly. What is your experience with motors and carbs?
