Re: Sputters out
Try taking your carb apart and making sure the float bowl is working properly. It sounds like you're starving for fuel once you really open it up and that would be a likely culprit. It doesn't take much for the float bowls to decide that they don't want to work right.
I knew a guy who had a very similar problem with his truck; it would run fine at low speeds, but once he tried to use it to pull his trailer, he couldn't get any power out of it at all. Turned out it was his (recently rebuilt) carb acting up. Sometimes even new parts go bad.
