Check the Flywheel key. It should be locked under the pull cord, where the stator is located. I will be a small piece of metal that slides into the spline from the engine and the stator. If it is worn the stator will rotate off the spline and the timing will be off, she won't start and if she does will be really rough and backfire, sputter and have power loss.
Run some Sea Foam in the gas it will clean the carb sounds like a sticky jet or dirty carb the Sea Foam will clean the carb of any residue or deposits that have built up in the carb over time causing it to malfunction you can get the Sea Foam at most parts stores and its cheap stuff and works awesome.
Based on information provided I would start with just checking the basics as far as servicing goes, starting with air filter, is it clean, and is there anything preventing it from breathing easily. Check the accelerator cabling, might be dry, stuck or mucky somewhere from pedal to carburetor that can cause similar problems. Check oil level of motor as well.. Hope this helps
