correct, every motor will be different for a variety of reasons.

Local temps. altitude above sealevel. gas/oil ratio. ect ect ect.

i would agree with My lil about a filter for a vented gas cap.
 
well i think i've solved the problem in my past post i said it checked for air leaks with wd-40 and picked up nothing i tried it with brake clean because it doesn't burn very good and i found the carb to intake manifold leaking like crazy one shot when idling it would die
pulled the carb off took it apart to check for dirt found sand on top of the diafram leaking in through the primer bulb base.
no dirt has seen to get into the cylinder thank god
put it back togther ran it in my garage seems to be running great notice that the low speed needle is way more responsive to change.
the final test will be in the sand pit this weekend!

until the pinion bolt snapped in half (instant neutral)haha
took a look at the clutch toast
time to order some parts!
 
that or the elcon/lauderbacher adjustable clutch.

Glad you got it worked out.
sometimes issues can be hard to diagnose, but there are always tell tale signs, its just learning how to read them to help diagnosing the probs.
