Clogged main jet (I doubt a 2 HP is injected...) You MAY get it cleared
just by running it and throttling up until the crap goes through or
dissolves. Failing that, you can sometimes clear a carb by hand choking
the intake while revving the motor. Remove palm before the engine
stalls. Failing that, you can sometimes clear a jet by finding the main
jet air bleed port in the carb venturi, and spraying some carb clean
down it. Failing that, try filling the float bowl with said carb clean.
This may help clear the clog as the cleaner goes through. Failing that,
o/haul carb.
That should keep you busy a while.

I have a 2HP (thats not a typo), 4 stroke honda engine. Think I got
it in 2005. I tried starting it up last night. Took about 50 pulls.
Fine no biggie, it hasn't been run in a few months. It idles like a
champ, but when I go to rev it bogs down real quick and will die, if I
don't let off the throttle. Pulled the spark plug, its fine.

Could a jet be clogged in the carb? I used a gas stabilizer in the
gas, so it would go bad as fast, so I dont think its my gas. Thanks
for any replies.
