first off what motor do you have??? not all motors run in there ponch, some like right under 300 and some just barely over 200.........secondly if its creeping forward but you hit the brakes and it dies, then the idle is too low, but your carb is at a bad angle, the carb should open and close freely, if so then adjust the carb till it fully closes when at neutral.......whats its doing is the carb is at a bad angle and it wont close all the way so that causes it to creep forward, but then you hit the brakes it puts pressure on the carb arm and closes it all the way, then it dies, which means your idle is too low
