check choke cable (can it go back the entire way?)
check normal gas cable (can it go back the entire way?)
check for false air (spray some highly burnable airosol (brake cleaner) around the carbs to see if the engine responds)
check carbs (maybe one main jet went loose, maybe some o-rings are faulty, maybe the idle-screws (at the bottom) are way too rich)
