I had the carb rebuilt last year, ran great. Now it starts and idles fine, as soon as I put it in gear and let the clutch out, it sputters and wants to die........could it be as simple as a fuel filter? Is there a fuel filter?
Thank you in advance.

My guess is clogged carb jet.
Fuel filter: should be easy to spot. If there's no such filter, I'd clean the fuel tank and the lines and then install that filter. Easy job. Not expensive. Then pull the carb, clean the jets, check the float and float valve/seat.

Good luck.

I put one of those universal in-line fuel filters that you can see into on mine. Under the fuel tank there should be one of those glass sediment bowl with a screen that needs to be cleaned out time to time.

You also might want to check the fuel line where it passes by the battery tray/fuel tank mount. Mine had the same problem, found the battery tray had worked loose and was flattening the steel fuel line. Good luck
