    Any ideas on the sputtering when I rev the darn thing. I would be happier if my stupidity was the only thing in the way of getting this thing running better.

    change the plug. Even if its new, ive spent hours fixing em and found that the new plug had died from trying to start it earlier on.

    Other then that adjust the jetting.

    does it splutter when you give it high revs only? or does it splutter when you hit the revs straght away?

    I had a similar problem. it would be fine on the revs untill i hit high revs and it would loose power and splutter.

    Pretty well sputters and 'pops' as soon as I start giving it some gas. Sometimes even does it when its idling, if the chokes on.

    did u check timing, No leaks on intake system pulse generator springs worn I think those springs expand and act as a timing advance or stabalizer ( could be wroong)and last carb not clean?

    Now i think about it, it sounds like ignition timing problem. Re-check it and make sure that the pulse pickup in the side of the head lines up when the "F" mark is visible.
