Default Earthquake starting help?

I'm having a little trouble keeping my earthquake running. I can get the car to start (very hard), but it dies while idling.
I did notice that just before it dies, it seems to want to suck the pull starter handle in. I release it fully after starting it, but just as it dies, it wants to suck in the cord more.

Is this a problem with the pull start?

Default RE: Earthquake starting help?

That's just the engine poping back around when it stalls, try leaning it out just a tad more on the HSP needle about maybe an 1/8th more. From what you were saying last night I'm betting it's still to rich.
