Hello there I have a united power gg1300 generator that will start and run just fine but only if I spray carb cleaner into carb. Even after it runs for a while once I shut it off it will not start again unless I use spray.

You have a Carburetor of Fuel Problem.
Verify Good Fuel, Unclogged fuel lines, filter, Carb.
If mechanically inclined and you rebuild your carb, don't bend anything unless you adjust for float drop and have tool, usually you can clean and reassemble and not have to adjust, IF you don't bend anything. Its critical and float shouldn't touch sides of float bowl.
You may get lucky by flushing tank, remove float bowl drain plug(hopefully it has one) and even spray cleaner up in there and into carb, may save dissembly.

Hey thanks for the quick response I have cleaned a few carbs before. So I will probably give that a shot when off work. Thanks again

If the float bowl has a drain plug, when you have good fuel back in and turned on, it should run out the drain plug freely, when removed.
