Can you tell me when you put it in gear does the engine bang to a stop like you let the clutch out on a stick shift car too fast or does it still run and then slowly stall? Can you please shoot a quick video with your phone so we can see what's going on, that would be great. You can upload it here with your response. This guide can help as well.
