If it’s starving for gas it could be a number of things.
1. Not jetted right or main jet &/or pilot jet is plugged
2. Float is not set correctly or float is cracked
3. Float valve is sticking
4. Air/fuel mixture setting isn’t correct
5. Intake/exhaust valves aren’t set correctly
6. Bad petcock/fuel pump
These are just off the top of my head, someone else might have a more precise answer or idea of what to look for.
Theirs a number of posts on just about all of these issues in the library section.
