I had a similar problem after a 1500 mile road trip. Mine would idle smooth and would run with your foot to the floor but nothing in between. I found that the fuel bowl screws were loose from the carb base. I found I could twist the top of the carb from the base so, I removed the carb tighten the 4 screws and now it runs better than ever.
