Tab: Just slow down and don't do anything in haste. It could be as Tom suggests, dirt or rust plugging the sediment bowl stem. Loosen the fuel line at the carb, see what kind of fuel flow you have. That will tell you whether it's sediment bowl or carb.
Then on the elbo into the carb there is a screen. If those two check out, internal carb is next. When you checked this all out, very likely a good cleaning is in order. Don't go roaring off to the parts counter. I've put these carbs back together and used them years after mechanical minds said they were worn out. Remember the slogan on original IH gas caps, "Buy clean fuel and keep it clean". That worked for 30 years, then we started getting a thing called rust on the inside of our fuel tanks. Especially bad on tractors parked long periods with little fuel in the tank, then you go and use the tractor and wash all the rust down from fuel slop. A sediment bowl works well for taking off water, now if we could install a rust crusher so that bloomin rust would flow through the sediment bowl stem and not the screen, we'd have this thing licked.
