Strange mower behavior

I have a Honda mower model # HRR2168VKA. I live in southwest Florida so the grass season is about 9 months each year and this is my second year owning the mower. I believe I have some type of fuel problem. If I lean the mower at about a 60 degree angle with the left wheels remaining on the ground, she starts running flawlessly and then I can cut grass for about 10 or so seconds, but then she loses power and will barely run, but If I lean her back on the left side she runs perfect. I even kept it leaned for about 10 minutes and she never missed a beat. So to cut my grass, I have to stop and lean her on the left side for about 3 or 4 seconds and then I can cut grass for about 10 seconds, then the cycle must be repeated. I just finished my yard and I feel like I just ran a marathon.

Does anyone have any ideas on this behavior?

Thanks

I replaced the carburetor (I bought one from a seller on Ebay named Just click-n-save for $39 and she runs like a charm.
