I've replaced the fuel pump diaphram, it has a new head gasket, new exhaust gaskets, new impellor, compression is 109/110/105, rebuilt carbs, adjusted mistures, when it runs well it accellerates hard (I mean powerfully) up to 5700 rpm (light load) and will run for many minutes like that.....until...well until its like I throttle back suddenly....rpms slow from 5700 to 4300 without moving the throttle....then its like throwing a switch......runs HARD for a few seconds, then slows, then hard, then slow....it never quits...it doesn't get rough....just slows mysteriously....because its so sudden when it happens I was wondering if it might be a power pack....what happens when they are on the way out<br />?.....thanks.......Tim
