@danieltols68043 sounds like you are having trouble with the needle valve in your bowl. You may have fuel in there but it may not get through your carb. Remove the bowl, set the float height and check the needle valve. To check and work on your carburetor, use this guide Briggs and Stratton Carb Overhaul
