Runs great but won't accelerate.

Hyster H50XM Serial # D177B36534U

This lift starts and idles great but when you try to press the gas pedal, it acts just like it's running out of gas. Checked the fuel filter. Please help.

The air filter isn't new but it isn't that dirty either. One thing I did find is one of the hoses that comes from the filter canister to the carb was split. Since I didn't have a new one I taped it up temporarily.

Sorry. I thought the model would tell that but it's a gas burner.
