Make sure you double check that fuel pump. As well it could be a carburetor problem if it still has one of them on there. You may ether have to adjust the carb or clean it. Also as well possibly it is bad gas you may have gotten from a gas station. Put some sea foam in the gas tank to assist it and some high octane gas.
