Has it been sitting up? If yes it may be the fuel. Having worked with these in years past it is not uncommon for the motor to run a little rough until the carburetor and fuel line are clear. First clean the glass fuel bowl under the tank . . . even if it looks clean. If you do not want to drip fuel on your torque tube remove the fuel line and install it backwards and turn on the fuel to be sure you have a good flow of gasoline through the line.

If your fuel line has a loop or dips below the carburetor then it could make the engine run rough.
