You have a classic case of carb flooding. There is a piece of junk under the needle in the float chamber. or the float has sunken due to a pinhole in it, or the float has contacted the side of the carb bowl causing it to stick down, or the needle is worn and failed to seat on the seat. All of these require at least the disassembly of the bottom of the carb. Not difficult at all. The first action (started now and continued till the tractor, or you are gone) is to shut off the fuel at the tank valve (little brass stem at the sediment bowl) every time you leave the tractor for more than 10 minutes. This includes after you fix the flooding. Change the filter and the oil, the dilution will ruin engine parts, and can become explosive.
