Ok. So when I run the blaster with the gas on it gets to a certain rpm and then rattles, and bogs with no response. It also runs like this too while driving. However when I turn the gas off, it runs beautifully. The jets are clean, there are no air leaks into the motor, i've adjusted the float lower, WHAT IS GOING ON!?!?! Ive taken out the carb at least 8 times trying different things. Is there an adjustment I should make? I am lost as of right now. :-/
 
It sounds like your float level is still too high. Did you bend the little tab up on the float? if so, try bending it up a little more.
 
If the float level is ok there are some other possibilities. Your float may be cracked or sticky, and is not "floating", or the float valve is not closing correctly. Also, how is your air filter ie: when did you last clean it? If it is very dirty, it could induce a rich condition that would be solved by shutting off the gas and leaning it out.

I did clean it when I noticed it, but still doesn't help.
