stupid question- but did you turn the fuel petcock to the "on" position? check and make sure you dont have a kink in the line or something stopping it up. does it have a filter that may be clogged or maybe the petcock itself has trash in it.

Sounds like the needle on the float is stuck.

Often when you unbolt the petc ock there will be a fine screen, which may be clogged.

Is your tank building up pressure? If the tank is not able to breathe it will do it. Take the cap off a try

I tried to put a lawn mower filter on mine and the carb would vacuum lock (I suppose you could call it that). It would get air in the line and wouldn't pull fuel from the tank unless I took the line off and let the gas come out. It would run fine for a while and then randomly screw up on me.

Did you take your cap off? Also make sure your vent lines are not clogged on your carb
