10 HP Craftsman not starting

I have a 1985 10hp craftsman lawn tractor that will not start. We have cleaned the carb, bowl, fuel filter, plug etc. If you put fuel directly into the carb, it will start and run until it has burned off that fuel It will not pull fuel thru the carb though. Any suggestions?

Have You Tried The Fuel Pump To See.. Is Pumping Fuel? Its Either That Or The Fuel Tank Filter,its Gravity Fed. Take Fuel Line Off At Carb Make Sure That Fuel Is Comeing Out If So Then The Float JeT Is Stuck.
