I pulled the carb and decided not to clean it since it had some corrosion. I installed a new carb and the surging is gone and the motor idles fine, but it is still missing when I advance the throttle. It's sort of a random missing, a popping sound. This motor has a solid state ignition module. The plug is new. Any ideas on what I should check?

Thanks all.

The fuel is fresh, ethanol free and mixed with Sea Foam. I'm afraid you're over my depth now. What do you mean by check the flywheel key?

Adjust the carb so its a little richer, or check the valves.

there is a fly wheel under the cover on the top take the nut off and make sure its not off set if it is off just a hair sometimes it will cause this prob ...And as Engineman stated check your valves also as for adjusting the carb if read it properly u have tried to adjust it already
