[QUOTE="ben2go, post: 78018, member: 751"] I would start with cleaning the carb(s) and checking the float height.Most engines don't require a kit for this.Another issue could be the points and condenser,I just replace them.Gap setting is usually on the plate covering the points.They are usually cheap.If it ran that good I'd say the coils are probably ok,but when they get hot they could be breaking down.Wost case,the carb(s) could be out of sync with the ignition timing,if your engine has this.I've yet to figure out how this works on my engine,but it must be spot on to run smoothly.
