About a year ago I had the needle valve jam closed in the front carb 
float bowl while running at about 4000 rpm.  So no fuel at all to the 
front carb.  I replaced both front and rear float bowl needle valves.  A 
sharp tap with a wrench probably would have freed it up, and it might 
have run for a long time without happening again.  If that was Tom's 
problem the needle might have bounced free by itself.
