Carb/fuel delivery issue, no doubt. A pic would help.
In all seriousness, there's little simpler than a 49cc 2-stroke.

The carb that comes standard on the pocket quads is ****e at best.

You may be able to get it running with the carb that is on it but it will only give you problems again. Replacing it with a 14mm delorto replica and adaptor is your best option if you are looking for reliability and a little more power. Ebay have them for $35.

I have bought from this seller on a few occasions and always great service.

I would also check your reeds while you have the carb off. I have had the same drama caused from bad seal on reeds to reed block. I sorted the problem by flipping the reeds.
