I figured that would be too easy. The next step is to remove the fuel line at the carb and see if you get a strong stream into a quart jar. Let it flow for several seconds, and if the flow is good, then take the carb apart and clean it. As mentioned, be sure the screen at the carb inlet is clean.

That's the knob where the choke is correct? I was told on a cold start to turn it clockwise as far as it will go, then back off counterclockwise a quarter turn to a half a turn.
