First of all I changed the title to reflect what the issue is.:-)
Engine stalling/dying is always the same when approaching it diagnosis wise.
Vacuum leaks are the #1 problem associated with this problem.
That is where you start.
Could be other issues such as jetting, mixture, etc...
We need to know what kind of carb, what other mods have been done.
Did you just install the carb or was it running fine and just started acting up?
When was the last tune-up? Plugs, fuel filter, etc....
What other recent work if any has been done to the engine?
