sounds to me like a air leak,cracked fuel tank or the o-ring on the lid of the tank is not sealing

I think you have an air leak in your fuel tank or a bad front engine bearing. I had this mill some time ago and had the same issue. Turns out the bearing was leaky. I wound up replacing it twice in 3 months that would cause it to run for a few seconds and cut out. Take your mill out and do the soapy bubbles test to check your carb and front bearing for leaks.
