well i guess i may have resolved the issues, i just kind of messed with the throttle gear manually pushed it back/forth and then it started moving fine, i can press brakes and that throttle gear will move like it should.
i'm able to accelerate now and engine won't quit, i think what the issue might have been was that the fuel tubing was suck between the engine and where the fuel tank sits, and even though it was getting fuel after i primed it before, today i was trying to prime it and the fuel wouldn't go through the tubing, so i took the fuel tube out of that stuck area and when i primed it in one pull the fuel immediately went through, so maybe that's the reason it was doing those short revs since there was an issue with air flow and fuel mixture.
the engine still has quit on me twice once when i pressed throttle but, it has improved since yesterday at least it's not doing it all the time. maybe after a few runs or more breaking in it wont' do that anymore or if anybody has other suggestions would be appreciated.

Don't be too concerned about it stalling now and then, there are many reasons that can happen. The needles, outside temp, engine temp, all factors. Make sure you have your needles right though since you have a brand new engine. Don't get too worried about the LSN just yet. A little on the rich side won't hurt for now. Now to rich and it gets hard to leave the line without it loading up, but remember to check it when it's warmed up. Remember your pinch test with the LSN. Also, remember when adjusting the LSN it's much more sensitive, small increments at a time, 1 hr turns or less will usually make a change. As far as the HSN, keep it so it's blowing good smoke for now, the speed will come, the engine will loosen up. Don't forget that the idle will affect your brakes making it stall. While breaking in you may need to keep the idle a little higher than normal.
