Make sure you're not pushing the valve handle "halfway" or partially. If you do this the valve position can cause a "deadhead" on the hydraulics and stall the engine. Other possibilities--a clogged return filter, a stuck cylinder (not likely). The fuel mixture setting as mentioned by Uncle Tom is also a possible cause. Our log splitter will sputter a little if the fuel mixture isn't set "just right". Last thing to check--disconnect the fuel line at the carb and make sure you have good flow into a jar or something. Our tank had lots of trash in it since it sat outside for years before we got it--had to clean the tank and the fuel valve/bowl assembly. We also installed an inline filter in the line between the tank and the carb.
