Default Check rubber fuel line in engine compartment

Mine was doing the same thing and all else had been checked or changed. The piece of rubber feed line just off the metal line in the engine compartment had swollen and had a crack.

Changed the whole rubber line and now it will climb to 9720 feet without a problem....

I think i found it last night. The bottom part of the carburetor was loose. I tightened it up.
