Could remove the petcock, check and clean petcock pickup tubes. And flush out the fuel tank with fresh clean gasoline.
As already noted, could be obstructed fuel cap vent. To test, just try running with cap loosened, and see if that helps restore fuel flow.
Good Luck!

Not unusual, because requires minimum fuel flow at idle.
