Does it idle low?
Do you have to use the accellerator pedal to keep it idling?
When you are stopped and you take off, does it sputter as though it is starving for fuel?

when you first start it you have to give it alot of gas and keep pressing on the gas to keep it from dieing for aound 1-2 min when its in park it idle real high but when you put it in gear the idle is real low and if you dont hit the gas pedal fast itll die

It sounds like the carb is just out of adjustment.
