Unit will not start without putting fingers over air-horn on carb, slightly open fingers and then the unit will start. It'll run on it's own after it starts and will rev normally when depressing accelerator but when the truck goes down to an idle, it dies and won't start again until I put my fingers over the air-horn on the carb again. Any ideas?
