Glad you and your plane are still in one piece. Just to add to Bill's suggestion, the first car I owned was...let's say, 'previously owned'. Occasionaly, when you tried to get on the gas to hard, it would die. Always cranked right back up. The problem went away when I rebuilt the carb to clean out all the trash that would get sucked up and block the jets (only when you really needed it not to).
