i have a rupp that wants to start hard, let it warm up it will start again easy, it will want to cut out when accelerating, let off and try again and then you get all kinds of power tell you let off again, is this the points thanks dustin

A fuel problem maybe?
Starts on fluid, won't stay running.
Check carb, lines , filter, shutoff valve, ect.

I would say the comp. is low. Rering it for 18$ and you will be surprised.
