The type of buggy would help but here is my suggestion, if you have teh settings where they should be and it's not loading up on fuel, lighten your clutch shoes.

Take a small drill bit and start at the free end and drill holes in them one at a time until it has the acceleration you want. I lighten all my shoes to get a nice hard hit off idle and it has never let me down.

Have you changed the plug? I had the same issue and a new plug was the answer.

Is the rattling sound coming from the disc brake?
