You may have clogged jet in the carb, or in the small fuel filter. Check everything from the tank down to carb, and if necessary take carb apart.
Go to your local autoparts store and by the rebuild kit according to your carburetor. Inside the box will be an exploded diagram of the carb which will make it relativly simple to rebuild First of all what kind of engine do you have. Briggs and Stratton or Tecumseh. If you have a Briggs & Stratton engine the factory setting on the little black screw is 1 turn out, Tecumseh engines 'usually' do not have adjustments. hope this helps
if the engine only runs when gas is poured into the carb it is generally caused by plugged jets and/or stuck needle in the seat. if it has been sitting for a length of time the fuel has either crystalized causing the plugging or the ethanol has caused a problem. if it is a new unit, briggs recommends tapping the carb lightly with a hammer to loosen the needle in its seat. for one reason or another the engine is not getting fuel through the carb
