15.5 tech engine?

I was mowing and it just died. I can pour gas in carb and it runs till prime is gone,what could be wrong????

Does the tractor have a fuel pump? If so, probably needs new diaphragm in the pump. Is assume the engine is a Tecumseh? Major mechanical parts are getting scarce since they went under, but consumables will be OK for years yet.

quit simply the engine is not getting any fuel could try cleaning the carb check fuel filter ect first to make sure fuel getting through.
good luck on that one as tech bits are hard to find may want to see about sourcing a new carb before spending money on it as you likely to end up needing one poss
