Fred,
The Y1 carb is famous for loosening up from its bell, causing intermittent
vacuum leaks.
With the engine running at idle, take off the air cleaner. Grab the top of
the carb, and try to rock it back and forth, side to side. If the engine
rates changes, the carb is leaking air.
Take the carb off, and tighten the screws that hold it together. Most are
located underneath. I have to do this to my carb about once a year.
