Default 582 Issue

Guys here again for help. I have a IH Cub Cadet 582 that I have been working on. It has an opposed twin Briggs in it. I had it running about a month ago but now have an issue where it won’t run without choke and then only runs about 10 seconds. It has a clear gas line so I can see there is fuel to the carb. I am needing ideas to troubleshoot.

Time for a carb rebuild is what it sounds like to me.

X 2 on the carb rebuild. If you don't use it often make sure you run ethanol free gas too.

After you take care of the carb issue since you don't use it often it might be a good idea to shut the gas off and let it run out of gas when you are done using it (don't forget to turn the key off afterward) If there is no fuel in the carb it can't gunk up.

You have a fuel delivery issue as everyone already stated.
You can try taking the clear plastic line off the carb barb/fitting and see if it is pissing a good stream, if yes, then the carb should be attended to as to why the fuel is not getting into the engine.
Just because you see fuel in the line, don't mean it is flowing.
Example would be holding a water bottle to your mouth but not drinking it.
A no flow problem.
FWIW:
I don't like clear plastic fuel lines as most become as hard as a groom on his wedding night.
also in cooler temps, again, the hard line tends to leak.
just my call, your milage will vary.
Now,
on the non ethanol fuel issue.
While I don't like corn squeezing's in my fuel as it is best left for adult beverages.
I am not a fan on non ethanol fuel.
But only because it is not sold in large enough quantities for it to be fresh.
I would like an honest answer from the fuel retailer as to how many gallons they sell and how often they receive deliveries.
My bet at the inflated cost, they sell little of it and what they have is at least over a year old.
Again just my thoughts.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
