Sounds like you may a few problems 1) being a carburetor needs cleaning as it sounds like it may be starving for fuel.
The Other may be the Governor how the Governor works is when your engine starts to get a heavy load on it the Governor will start to increase the throttle to compensate for the load and then as it catches up it will decrease the throttle, Check to see if the carburetor float bowl has dirt in it if looks clean then make sure the Governor has all the springs still working and not stretched out.
