Probably time for the carbs to be cleaned and re-sync'd.
You can try running a can of Seafoam or equivalent fuel-additive
to it and try that first, though.

is the air/fuel ratio correct?... if that's got an EPA plug over it then are your carbs in sync?... those 2 are usually what causes your problem... you're either starving for fuel or drowning in it
