After a night of restless sleep I got up and grabbed a cup of coffee and went out and stared at the engine. Thinking. And then I had a thought. What if I had crossed the gas and fuel lines? How would the engine act? So I pulled the front cover since the cover hides the feed lines. I got the cover off and VOILA!!!! CROSSED LINES

Marc-your post prompted me to check the lines!!!! Thank you sir!!
