You might try getting a spray can of "Carburetor" cleaner [~ $ 3] and spray it into the carburetor and let it soak for 5 minutes and repeat again. Maybe try pulling the starter rope and spray more cleaner in the carburetor.
Then put some gasoline in the carburetor and see if it will keep running.
If this does not work......you should take the carburetor off and clean it. Make sure you can squirt "carburetor cleaner" through each of the small holes in the carburetor.
If you find any of the "onion skin" film in any of the fuel lines be sure you clean them good or better.....install new fuel lines.
