I finally have the Cub back together, new radiator from this site, recently welded engine block on the front mount where they all break. I timed it after complete assembly and I was able to tow it to run. At first it was very rough, but I tweaked the timing and it smoothed out to purring perfectly. After about 5 minutes of running beautifuly, it sputtered and died. I towed it more and was able to get it to run, but only for a minute or less, then it sputtered and died again. I did this several more times then lost interest as the snow started and it was cold. It starts very hard every time. I suspect carburation, but any other thoughts before I tear the carb apart again?
