Good to hear you now have water cooling things! Like Buck says carbs and ignition got to be right. It would help if the big horse did not pull so hard. Pump the button on the tank until it firms up. If it does not firm up you could have a problem in the tank also. 67 years old she will take some work to get’er right. I put new carb kits in mine. The new needle has a rubber tip. Sealed better than the solid tip one that it came with. Kit also had a little wire that opens the needle for fuel to flow. Original needle and seat tended to stick sometimes.
have patience you will get it!
