ok does it idle really high? clean your carb again, like manually, then run seafoam through it while its idleing, have you decarbonized your cylaner head? or ecaust port?

after clearning carb again and running seafoam in with the gas started good but when i gave it gas it wont stay running after reading some posts i found something to try i removed the bystarter and put finger over the hole and it ran good could this be the problem after it warms up ? i put 12 volts to the bystarter and it wont move problem repaired? maybe?
