Re: help needed
Check your tap as this was what had happened to mine when i bought it, i took the vacum out and it ran fine, but before it had exactly the same symptoms as your saying, i thought it was flooding too! I've tried putting a brand new vacum kit back in my tap but it still wouldn't run, started up with no throttle and it died when i revved it, so out came the vacum again!
I think this should be your problem mate take your tank off, whip the tap off, dismantle it and take out the diaphram, then see if she goes then.

Re: help needed
can you get it to start on the choke?
let it warm up a bit before revving it and see how it goes?

Re: help needed
Have you tried what i said the other day, definately worth doing as i reckon this is your problem. If it starts with choke you only have to give it a few seconds before revving it and if it dies then, the fuel is not getting through.
