I’m thinkin’ you probably have some dirt in the carb blocking the gas path – it may be caught in the needles as others mentioned – You may be able to fix without taking the carb apart by unscrewing the adjustment needles all the way out and spraying carb cleaner in the holes you took them out of. Use a can of carb cleaner with the long tube to get it way it the hole with some pressure. It may just move the dirt and it could run awhile and block again, or if you are lucky, it may blast it right on through.
