this is what i think happened....when the carb was replaced, they didnt get a good seal on the intake/intakes.....check these for leaking.....with the engine running, take some wd 40 and spray around the intake of the carb, if the engine changes....that is where the leak is.....keep the spray away from the aircleaner so as not to give a false reading.....let us know how ya make out!!!
