I think I just found your problem. The fuel shut off soleniod opens fully during cranking and then backs off just a little bit when you stop cranking and the engine is running. If you are running a cable set up instead of a electric soleniod you could be leaving it at full open during running condition. try shutting the shut off just a little bit, I mean just a little bit, and see if that helps. also check for full travel of the lever and your cable. not enough pull on the shut off lever can cause the same symtoms

I had a ishue with an engine that would run the same way yours is doing, and it turned out that it was 180% out of time the pump that is, it will run still but it will be hard starting and smoke! the crankshaft turns twice to one turn of the cam It could be a half a stroke out ! the fuel has to be delivered on the compression stroke! The fix was to lock the pump and losen the nut and take puller and brake the gear lose then turn the crankshaft one turn back to tdc and lock it down while the marks line up that fixed the one I was doing
