My 706 did the same thing. The gas tank had bits of rust in it that plugged the intake to the sediment bowl fitting. Even though the sediment bowl had little rust in it, the inlet was the problem.
Have a bucket ready and take out the entire sediment bowl assy from the tank. All the gas (and hopefully some of the rust) will come out. Look at the inlet of the fitting, there is a disk staked into the center. Under the disk are two slots the fuel enters the valve. This is where mine clogged. After two cleanings, I finally solved the problem by cutting the disk out and extending the inlet with a piece of copper tubing 1/4" dia by 1" long. This abandons the bottom 1" of your tank capacity. Apparently, the rust can't jump that high as I've had no more problems.
