Starts and idols fine but when put in gear and you start to move it starts to flood out? You can rev at idle with no problems but once it is under load it starts to sputter out. What's going on?

For a vacuum leak... you can spray carb cleaner around the manifold to see where it accelerates..... same with around the carb...
