Check to make sure you don't have anything floating around in the fuel tank. I've seen many machines exhibit the symptoms you describe and alot of times that's the problem. I've seen it become more prevelant since they started putting the foil seals on the top of additive bottles, because people often just push the foil through and when they start to pour the contents into the tank the foil piece comes loose and dives into the tank without them realizing it. Regardless of the object though what usually happens is when the engine is running the fuel pump creates enough suction to pull the piece down against the line and block it off. When the engine stops it moves away and just cranking the engine over doesn't create enough suction, for long enough, to pull the piece back down and shut off the fuel flow. In other words it's one of those things that is a real PITA to diagnose and find but the problem does exhibit the symptoms your describing. I've also seen the same thing happen when an inline filter got something that looked almost like super find grass clippings (disentigrated paper towl, etc???) sucked into it. Same thing, the stuff would settle in the filter and I was getting fuel when cranking the engine over, but once started the stuff sucked up against the element and blocked the flow, starving the engine til it quit. Good luck finding the problem. It'll probably be something really simple when you figure out the cause....usually is...LOL.
