3hp briggs & stratton stalls

Hello,
So I have this 3hp briggs and stratton that sits on a garden tiller but after I start it about after 10 minuten it stalls.
Do you guys have any ideas why It might stall?

    Check for spark when it acts up, (spare plug-plug into wire and ground to head).
     
    If you have spark, spray some starting fluid down the carb and see if it fires off momentarily.

    Sounds like a loss of fuel to me

    Yeah, it's got one of those carbs that suck in gas from a fuel tank underneath it, so I put a different carb on it and a fuel tank above it
