In my case, the problem turned out to be the old SU fuel pump. If you are not sure you are getting fuel, you can install a clear plastic fuel filter near the carb. I did this and found it very useful.</div><div class="qtdSeparateBR" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1533441656885_1208165"><br><br></div><div class="yahoo_quoted" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1533441656885_1208163" style="display: block;"> <div style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1533441656885_1208162"> <div style="font-family: HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1533441656885_1208161"> <div dir="ltr" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1533441656885_1208160"> <font size="2" face="Arial" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1533441656885_1208333"> <hr size="1" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1533441656885_1208332"> <b><span style="font-weight:bold;">From:</span></b> Stu via Tigers <tigers@autox.team.net><br> <b><span style="font-weight: bold;">To:</span></b> Tiger Net <Tigers@autox.team.net> <br> <b><span style="font-weight: bold;">Sent:</span></b> Friday, August 17, 2018 4:14 PM<br> <b><span style="font-weight: bold;">Subject:</span></b> [Tigers] Anyone Recognition These Symptoms?<br> </font> </div> <div class="y_msg_container" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1533441656885_1208335"><br><div id="yiv7291093382"><div dir="ltr" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1533441656885_1208338"><div class="yiv7291093382gmail_default" style="font-size:small;">Due to travel, weather, and life in general, I haven't touched the Tiger for several weeks.

It started ok, and if I kept it at 2 - 3000 rpm all seemed fine. But when I took my foot off the pedal, it dropped to idle, then started pulsating, like I was turning it off for an instant, once a second or so.
