Carb problems with my bolens?

Hi,
I have a 1476 Bolens large frame tractor, i just recently rebuilt the carb but now it seems it has a carb problem.
When the tractor goes up medium slopes, or if it's really bumpy the engine will lose drastic power and slow down...
I was figuring possibly it's running to rich? i'm not sure, there's no leaks and the jets are all set right.
Any help would be appreciated, Thanks rob.

If it's throwing black exhaust ,it's too rich,but if not,I'd check the float level..it could be starving for fuel.
