SOURCE: seems like bike is running rich

The idle problem sounds like an idle adjustment. The surge may be the throttle cable, try spraying a lubricant from the top of the cable and work it back and forth to loosen and release any debris.

SOURCE: will not stay running.

The carbeurator needs to be cleaned. Get a bottle of seafoam additive/carbeurator cleaner at the auto parts store and add it to your gas tank [one ounce per gallon of gas] It will get the **** out of your carb.

SOURCE: Engine cuts of after it runs about 3 or 4 min. If

what kind of machine?

It could be that you have to much oil in the crank case. I overfilled mind and my son could not ride his machine behind me, due to the smoke. Otherwise drain the carb (small bolt under the float chamber. Good Luck
