It sounds like you need to clean out the carb. It's not as scary as it sounds. The gas you buy today gums up pretty quick. 90% of the time one of the $20 rebuild kits from a farm supply or Napa will do the job. Get a can of carb cleaner too. Take the thing off the tractor, set it on the bench, and start tearing it down. Make notes of where stuff came from as you go. But there are only a few parts inside the old things, so there really isn't much to keep track of. Shoot the carb cleaner through all the passages, and make sure they are all open. Give the float a shake, to make sure it doesn't have gas in it. Make sure the screen in the inlet side of the carb is clean as well. Put it all back together, and back on the tractor. I can't guarantee that it will do the job, but You'll only have $25 and a couple hours invested, and GENERALLY it will solve the problem.
