adjust the clutch,put it against a tree or garage to see if it has no power.just a guess and a starting point

Adjust clutch, make sure it's NOT on choke, clean out carb, make sure it's in first gear.

Should say the year it was made right on the frame under the gas tank.

Post some pics of it! :)

Hot spark? Maybe not advancing timing...?

no not much power he can only run on low, then bogs out when he gives it gas, we tried to adjust carb but not sure were it should be

Pour on the coals and it dies...

Sounds like mixture settings to me.

no, no carb smoke, in the process of cleaning out carb.
