WELCOME TO LMF!
I would suggest looking at some other threads from people who have similar problems to see if they help. The following threads might really help:
I suggest you check the valve clearance. If it is off you will not get enough fuel into the cylinder. Post engine numbers and i'll find you a manual. Is it an Intec or Vanguarrd?Don't bother with the posts on the 160 or 170, they won't help you, because nothing was solved.

If it's backfiring through the carb after squirting some gas in it, sounds to me like the flywheel key might be partially crimped but not quite sheared off. Doesn't take much of a dent in the key to make it kick and sputter etc. Check the flywheel key.
