    Tecumseh HS40 Help needed . Idles only.

    HS40 idles until I "unchoke" or hit gas

    Hey fellas, I've been working on this HS40. I swapped intakes from a slanted to a level one. I've got it so it will idle now but once I try to take off the choke it quits. It also quits when I try to give it some throttle. Any ideas? :shrug:
