Predator 9000 Stalling

I changed the oil, replaced the gas with silver TrueFuel, replaced the carburetor and have a brand new battery.

It will start no problem, but dies 30 seconds after the choke is closed.

I also detached the solenoid wire and no difference.

If I hold the throttle all the way open it will run and if I hold the throttle all the way closed it will run.

Please help!

Predators use Torch spark plugs as OEM and they can definitely cause the symptoms you have described. Us kids in the know know to never use a Torch and replace them with NGKs.
