Why are Kohler Courage engines so bad?

Have been having issuses with our zero turn mower motor for a bit now and can figure out whats wrong yet. We changed spark plugs, cleaned air filter and made sure oil and such where were they needed to be. We noticed gas sitting in the air box in a pool. Hired man took the carb off and cleaned it runs better BUT after it ran for about 10 mins it started smelling like gas and would blue smoke every so often. I shut it down a bit of gas was already back in the air box after cleaning. So would this be a shot float needle and seat? Its what were thinking, thoughts?
I replaced the spark plug, air filter, fuel pump, and carburetor on my engine. I also drained the old ethonal gas and have the tank half full with ethonal-free gas. The motor will not stay running. I can take the fuel pump off and pump some gas to the carb, reattach the pump and pull the chord. The motor turns over and runs for a second or 2 then shuts off. I can keep the motor running by spraying starter fluid but once I stop that, the motor dies.
I'm no small engine expert, but I feel I have everything installed correctly. Do I need to adjust a new carburetor?
