Does it draw gas from your main fuel tank or does it have a separate tank? If it is a separate tank it might just be some bad (old) gas and needs drained and refilled with fresh. Maybe I missed it but what do you mean by "ran it dry"? As in you ran it out of fuel?
FYI - Based on today's gasolines and the ethanol they contain, I only put 93 octane in my mowers, atvs, generator, etc. Basically anything that doesn't get once every week. The 93 octane has a lower ethanol level and will last longer before it begins to break down. It's also a good idea to put in an additive such as Sta-bil or something similar into the fuel of those items.
