Well your not getting enough fuel, you didn't say if it dies when your driving or when idling but could be one or more of several problems:
In order of what I would do:
crud in the fuel line/filter,carb. blow them out or replace. (Carb need rebuild?), remove float valve & clean
mixture too lean on carb needs adjustment
fuel pump plugged/ bad
fuel tank outlet is plugged, check your getting gas out of the tank and enough gas.
