Default 302 poping through carb

Hay gang new to the site, I have been reading many of the threads and need a little help. I got out the ol' girl today first time this year. I replaced the plugs (new E3), battery, and wires (MSD 8.5 mm high dollar jobs, my dad got them for me). Now, she wants to pop back through the carb. Seems to idle ok. I went to pull it back into garage to change oil and she struggled to keep running. Just kept popping. Any thoughts? She ran great when I put her away in the fall.

Thanks. I took a break, went back to it later in the day. Then I found that yep! Like an idiot, I had three and four crossed up. She runs like a champ. Thanks for the response.
