opening the tank vent screw may not be enough Under the vent screw are two small air holes which get crudded closed. you must see light. take piece of paper clip and push out the crud.
at the very least try the motor without the gas cap on the tank. if it runs better the 2 air vent holes are plugged.
Under the gas cap is a small aluminum plate with 2 notches.
Rotate the plate to align notches with vent holes otherwise you can hardly see the 2 little air holes.
Worth a try…
btw did you clean out the low speed drip chamber on top of the carb where the dime size plug is located ?? read the article below.
dont give up on a great little engine. 😉
