My brother said he had a new carb kit put in but it still is the same.
Starts fine, idles, press the throttle at all and it dies.

I know there are some tweaks to make on settings and screws but is it

Took out the fuel filter, looks clean, blew through it backwards, seems fine.

I got a couple new spark plugs and will try ignition coil next if no progress.
