SOunds like a fuel problem. Check the gas filter and relpace. COuld be that there is dirt in the line or filter. Clean out the carb with some carb cleaner. I usually put a bottle of Chevron Teckron in the gas tank and run it. Expensive, but good stuff. If it was running and all of a sudden it starts idling rough or dies, you probabally have dirt some place in the fuel line.

Symptoms:
Float: If the engine pulses, ie. speeds up and then slows down at idle, it's probabally a misadjusted float.
