Not enough fuel is getting to the carburetor. Check the fuel line, petcock and carburetor. Remove the fuel line from the carburetor and check if fuel flows freely from the petcock. There could also be dirt or debris in the fuel tank. Check fuel filter. Dissassemble the carburetor and clean it. Adjust the air and fuel screws on the carburetor. Check the air filter, is it clogged? If so, this could be one reason. Check the venting of the fuel tank. A fuel tank without a vent will act like a vacuum to stop fuel flow. Mostly venting is done through the fuel tank cap. A lot of dirt around it could have clogget it. Clean fuel tank cap and opening with gasoline or kerosene or white spirit.
