This sounds like a basic Main Jet clog. I suppose it could also be a semi-clogged fuel filter, but the Main jet is more likely. This is assuming that the engine is not fuel injected. As I do not know the type of carb I cannot give you any of the easy cheats to try for a quick check, but for older carbs with a slide you can pull the slide out and use compressed air to shoot some air down the main jet hole at the bottom. Otherwize, the "Best" way is to disassemble and clean. This is a "Guess" at best, however I have seen this very problem several times on multiple carbs. Good Luck.

Track down the fuel line to the fuel pump and check the wiring there. You should have good power to the pump, and you should have a good electrical ground. If you have both but the pump isn't pumping, and the tank has plenty of good fresh gas and the gas petcock is turned on, then the fuel pump needs replacing.

Be sure the plug at the rear of the engine ic properly attached and clean. It gets knocked off easily.

take the choke out of the carb using a 14mm wrench. The choke is a plunger held into the front of the carb by a plastic nut. Lubricate it and put it back. Be careful not to overtighten the plastic nut.

fuel line plugged, carb needs cleaning, bad gas
