Craftsman LT1000 19.5 Briggs and Stratton Turbo Cool Won't Stay Running

Older Craftsman LT1000 19.5 HP Briggs and Stratton Turbo Cool Engine Engine Model 42E707 Type 2631 E1 Code 9809185A When I start the engine it smokes really bad and won't run for more than 20 seconds or so, then it stops starting all together. The smoke is white. If I let it sit for 30 or so minutes then I can get it to run for another 10-20 seconds and then it won't start again. Almost like it is getting too much gas and flooding as I can smell gas very strongly.
