Ah, a couple things that you brought up that can effect running.
You re-ringed the piston. Please use a fuel ratio of 24:1 to properly break in and set those new rings for at least 8 to 10 running hours.
Reusing the old head gasket should not be done. Reusing the old head gasket can set you up for water leaking into the cylinder.
Reusing a parts motor lower crankcase seals on your current motor can set you up for water intrusion in the crankcase and eventually cause servere crankcase damage. Incompetent lower crankcase seal can effect crankcase pressures and cause fuel delivery issues.
Post a video when you get her straightened up. Always a treat on the forum here.
