cannot decide if I have ignition problem or fuel problem,engine starts perfectly runs on full power for afew minutes then looses powerand will run on low revs before stopping altogether. I have taken off carb and cleaned it but this does not cure the problem help

how hard is the primming bulb, you might have an air leek in the fuel line :) happened to me, I replaced the carb fuel pump and spent 200 trying to find the problem! then after all that I found out it was the lowzy fuel line!
