Rebuilding the carburetor is a good idea, and may need to be done. However, first verify that there is a good, steady flow of gas to the carburetor by (safely, with a cold engine) disconnecting the fuel line at the carburetor fitting, and turning on the gas. If there is a steady flow that far, remove the brass inlet fitting from the carburetor, as there is usually a screen extending from the fitting into the carburetor. Clean and reinstall the screen/fitting.

On the bottom of the carburetor, there should be a drain, usually a hex-headed pipe plug. remove the plug, and drain out any rust and water. With the plug out, turn the gas on at the tank, and verify there's a good, steady flow of gas through the carburetor, and out the drain plug. Install the plug, make sure there's no spilled gas around, and try starting the tractor. Hopefully, that will clear up the problem, and no more repairs will be needed!
