Whe you say it runs do you mean it turns over, or it runs? Have you got a spark? How long since it was last used? Ever cleaned the carb / fuel lines / filter?

Check the ground wire connection from the starter solenoid to the engine case on the LH side.

Yeah, ground or bad solenoid probably. How old is the battery?
