you may want to look at the accelerator pump in the carb and you may need to do something with the pilot jet, thats what controls fuel at idle and low throttle

sounds like its sucking air maybe, check the spray some carb cleaner around the intake manifold and see if the motor revs up, if it does, then you have an air leak. its a cheap test and will be quick to eliminate if nothing changes when you spray it.
