Gary, There are 3 fuel filters, one in the tank above the fuel valve, one in the fuel bowl above the gasket and one in the carb where the fuel line goes into it. Check all of them then open the drain to the carb to make sure you have a good flow of gasoline. Catch it in a can and let about a 1/2 pint go through to clean out anything that might be in there. You might give it a shot of starting fluid to see if it will start. Have you checked or cleaned out the air filter system? It sounds more like a gas related problem and would check that next. HTH
