Paul,
 
how long has it been since your carb has been apart?  Do you drain the
bowl at every annual? I had a similar problem with my first coupe and
after opening up the carb I found that the bottom of the bowl was full of
crud and water. 
 
The fuel pickup to the main jet is slightly elevated, so that if any
water or crud is in the bowl, the fuel feed should be above it and you
can operate that way for a while. If the buildup continues, then
eventually your carb will start sucking the crud. The problem will appear
intermittently- sometimes power, sometimes sputtering, also varying with
nose angle. Carb kits are only about 19 bucks for the gaskets. If you
can, just get yourself a can of carb cleaner at Kragen's and just re-use
the gsaket until you get home.
 
 
Hopefully it's something simple like this.
