Sure sounds like its a fuel related issue. If it happens at a specific throttle position, then for sure its carb. Theres no feedback to the computer for throttle position, on this motor.
If you have the choke on 1/2 or 3/4, does the problem go away or improve?

Change the spark plug before you do anything else. If that doesn't solve the problem then you need a spark tester to see how hot your spark is, should jump a gap of about 1/2". Then start chasing ignotion components. There are a bunch of voltage and ohms checks to check the different components, the charge coil, trigger coil, CDI box and ignition coil.
