I'd spray carb cleaner around all fittings and see if the engine tone changes. If so, you found your leak. Some guys also use the gas from a non-lit propane torch, as it produces similar results.

Has the carb had a good cleaning?  Might want to do that first.

You might have done it already, but I have found the fuel goes bad. I drained my D17 that had new fuel in it a month ago, left it in an open pail and after a week still has fuel in it.

Fresh fuel,

Carb was rebuilt not too long ago, but yes it may need cleaning.

Actually I dont know much about the workings of a carb, but willing to tear into it if I must.

Manifold is newer, hope there isnt a leak!

Thanks guys.

I think I would put the carb on hold and look at ignition. I have seen points, condensor and plug wires cause this problem. Drives you nuts until you find it. Had one that I messed with a long time and found a wire shorting against the block. To soon for the gas and match.
