I had similar symptoms on an Echo and inspection revealed all the fuel hoses were falling apart. I think the suction hose was letting air in, resulting in poor running and repeated stalling. $15 to Home Depot and it runs like new. Before going straight to the carb, I'd look at all the replaceables and make sure they're in good shape. Like you, I don't use it all that much and I suspect that combined with modern fuel causes some extra issues.
