Clogged fuel filter, pinched fuel line, out of gas, clogged spark arrestor...I'd start with those.

Clogged fuel filter - remove fuel line. You should have a steady flow to the carb. If not, go to Wally World and buy one in the auto section for about $4.
Spark Arrestor - Look for some screws on your silencer. Pull it out and wipe it, spray it or soak it.

See less than a half an hour since you moved it help is on the way. =]
Make sure you report your findings on what he said to check and if that doesn't fix it I'm sure he will take you to the next level to check.
