Default Help with engine!

Ok, my engine starts up really well and idles good, but when I throttle just even slightly, the engine shuts off. I played around with the needle going back and forth from rich to lean but still won't help. What is the problem here? Even just a slight throttle the motor shuts off. I thought it was too rich but seems that's not the case.
