gx140 stalls under slight load

ive got a log splitter with honda 5hp gx140 engine.. Ran fine in the spring, but gas in the carb gummed up over the summer and wouldn't start for me in the fall. I pulled the carb twice to clean it. It will now start on first pull, idle, but will stall even under the slight load of running the ram back and forth without a log... I suspect it's governor related, but not sure what to do ?
