Did you double check your cam timing? I put a 300ex back together and was one tooth off, on the cam timing. It would let compression come back through the carb, thus making a sputtering sound.

Seeing how throttle input is related to the issue..sure sounds like a carb problem. Are the connections on correctly and tight , at the carb?
