Not getting gas?

if your flow stops after a bit you should be able to trace back a section at a time until you find your problem(s)

if the tractor is new to you, you might discover all sorts of crud inside the gas tank causing intermittent plug-ups

2. Did you check how much flow is coming through the line? If you cleaned the tank but never checked the line, there's a good chance there's a chunk of crud in the line. Once the tractor sits for a couple minutes, more gas trickles into the carb, but once it is running, it slowly drains it until the bowl is empty again.

Take off the line and blow through it. If the problem still persists, blow back into the tank as well. Loosen the cap and cover the top with a rag. If you leave the cap on, it'll blow out everywhere it can, including around the sediment bowl. Leave the cap off without anything over the top, it'll blow out the top of the tank. the rag will atleast catch it before it makes a bigger mess.

The inline filter doesn't help because its probably made for automotive service with a fuel pump and there isn't the pressure in the gravity system to push fuel through it. You may find it runs better without that filter. There are filters made for gravity feeds, but they probably don't have engough flow for the 135 engine when its working hard as most are made for single cylinder engines.
