    B&S engine idles, but bogs and dies on acceleration
    This is an 8 hp B&S horizontal shaft motor. Appears to be a pulsa jet carb. Been sitting 2 years. Pulled carb and cleaned. Looked at diapham, etc. It starts fine. Engine will speed up with opening the idle screw. Open the throttle and it bogs/dies. Hand feed gas to carb when opening the throttle and it will speed up. Thanks for any help.

    I hate to tell you this, but clean the carb again.
