Engine dies after downline

[jim ivey]

Bill
First make certain the tank is not foaming,likeBubbles so small you can 
hardly see them. Make sure the clunk is not forward.
I would adjust with the nose high(pointed up) and pinch the fuel line Listen 
for a increase in rpm. A slight increase means you are on the rich side of 
peak.
The pipe can be a different animal.
