Sounds like you could have an issue with the fuel delivery ie pump as when we open the clutch we allow more petrol to the engine so when closing it its not getting petrol or the right ammount to run effectively if unsure about maintenance would suggest taking back to place of purchase hope this helps
You need to adjust the carburator needle gas low(L) and hi(H). they have sometimes a color coded caps on it. you may need to remove it if at first wont run. if you continue to have problems let me have the complete model#. also make sure you have a fresh mixture of gas.
Hi,

If that does not correct the problem then run some Carb cleaner through it... you have dirt and gunk, varnish whatever in there...

Have you tried getting some Carb cleaner run through it???
A bit in the tank and then run it with the choke to keep it running...then let it set and then run some more...see if you can looses the dirt up... bttom line is that you are running too lean and the closing of the choke makes the air fule mixture work...

Hello, Make sure the fuel is mixed correctly. Too much oil in the mix will cause problems. If you are still having problems, you will need to adjust the high-speed mixture setting on your Carburetor jet. Turning the screw out just 1/2 turn or so should do the trick. It is not so hard to adjust the Carburetor, however you do need a special tool that is very hard to get your hands on, in order to adjust the jet screws. They don't make many engines with plain screw heads anymore. The newer Carburetors are factory set lean so they can pass emission standards. If you have a local dealer, they should adjust the mixture for a couple of bucks. Before you take it in to the shop, make sure you haven't left old fuel in it for a long period of time and gummed those jets up. Sometimes an engine just needs to run in order to clean the jets out. If this is the case, just replace the fuel and get it running and work it normal for a tank of fuel if you can. Just a TIP: Always mix your fuel with an approved fuel stabilizer. Fuel begins to go bad after a few months and that's why many people have fuel problems in the spring. I hope I've helped. If you found this reply useful, please leave me some THUMBS UP, if you feel I

It may be, doesn't take much to clog the ports in those little carburators.
I'd empty the tank and make sure my tank of gas isn't contaminated.
I had to remove my carb, disassemble it and soak the body in fresh gasoline for 10 minutes then blow it out. Now it runs better then the day I bought it
SOURCE: Blower only runs with full
it may simply need the high speed jet opening up a bit (2 screws near eachother on the carb and the high speed is furthest from the engine)
failing that it needs a carb kit.... this is a serviceable item changed regularly.
