There is no fuel relay on one of these. They have mechanical fuel pumps, not electric. I do agree is probably has a fuel problem with the very limited amount of information listed. Does it start back? The carburetors on these need periodic adjustments. Choke, choke pulloff, 2 idle screws, and float level should be checked in the carb.
