My first choice would be to check the fuel supply for restrictions (pinched hose, plugged filter, inoperative pump where applicable and see if there is a clogged strainer in the tank where applicable). It's also possible that the carb float mechanism may have a restriction which will not allow the bowl to fill as fast as the fuel is being used. If you get good fuel flow from the supply all the way to where it goes into the carb, the problem may be in the carb itself. Can you start the machine again immediately or do you have to wait a while before it will start? Are you running the machine under load, or just idleing it for the indicated time period?
