Having issues with it running. Unless you baby the throttle the motor dies. If you also give it more than 60%, it bogs.
If it idles steady and stumbles when you crack the throttle, YES, it's the accellerator pump.
BUT a bad accellerator pump won't create an idle that dies.
Try looking down the carb, engine not running, and cracking the throttle to see a healthy squirt of gas.
Otherwise, it sounds like a needle/seat issue if there's fuel visibly drooling out of the card.
AND/OR a bad vacuum leak. Which can be as simple as a blown base gasket of rotted out vacuum hoses.
Do a rebuild, replace old rubber vacuuum hoses and be done.
