Took off the other and at about 100 feet the engine studdered and quit, and then caught again climbed another 100’ or so at full power and the studdered and quit again and relight after another 10 seconds or so. I turned around and landed. Engine idled fine, and there was no contaminants when I sumped it. I pulled the screen Out of the carb and only a few drops of fuel came out. Pulled the plug on the bottom of the float bowl and captured the result on video:


Is this an appropriate amount of fuel? It seems like more should be coming out?
