Check your idle screw on the carb. The connection could be disconnected, or dodgy.

The gearbox drain plug is on the bottom. It's a 20mm or 22mm nut, something like that from memory.

Can be really hard to get the side bolt off, you might need to drop the gearbox to get a hex socket on it. That is its assuming 360, if its a 340 should be less of an access problem.
