Enter as CV20-65597, it is a good number. Check the fuel line, it may be spongy and collapsing. Als look at the fuel filter.

As Roy most it is carb related problem.
Check the usual stuff like fuel in bowl for water. Loose electrical connection causing the fuel solenoid to drop due engine vibration. The wiring doesn't show the fuel solenoid wiring circuit but I know it got to be there.
If wish to clean the carburetor the ipl is showing that you have the single barrel Nikki which the repair kit is PN 24 757 18-S. Now Nikki and Kohler are proud of these kits so they are expensive when to other carb kits.

The carb needs a thorough cleaning, also replace the fuel filter

Drain the tank and add a small amount of isopropyl alcohol to fresh gas.
