Well, she'll idle down okay without load but dies once you put it in gear. If you set the throttle when in gear and under a load to a low idle, it revs like crazy when you pull it out of gear, and thunks into gear like someone hit it with a sledgehammer. I'm thinking it needs a carb rebuild. Any other ideas?
