well run the gas out and refill to make sure it wasnt the gas. Probably is, i have gotten some bad gas from places, poor burning and some smoke.

you might look for a product at the parts store that helps clean up bad fuel. Not sure if any are specisic to a particular contaminant in fuel(ie water) but you may look into this. It might help pass the fuel through better.
