My engine was running fine yesterday. Cleaned up my truck a little bit and went outside to try to get it running. I wasn't as easy to start.
When I would get it to start, as soon as the truck stopped it would die. When I would hit my brakes and when I woudn't it would still die.

What do I need to do?
Might be too rich or your idle a bit too low. My revo was doing it and I hat the bottom end a bit rich. It kept flooding. I leaned out the whole motor and left the low end. The idle was then fine. I ran a tad hot after that... but strong. Probably just needs the needles fiddled with.

Also, how much fuel is through it?? May be the beginning of a worn piston/sleeve.
I will try to lean the LSN then. I won't be able to do it tomorrow because I am gonig to the bears game.
