Most probably your defective float( repair of float thread) is allowing way too much fuel into the engine. I would also check your brake drums after a short trip and if they are hot then your brakes are incorrectly adjusted. it would also pay to conduct a compression test to check if your engine has the potential to produce reasonable power, may have a Low comp head on. There are lots of possibles and it is just a matter of sorting out the ones that matter. PT
