Mend Craftsman Carb Spark Plug Lawn Mower

Why won't my Craftsman lawn mower stay running?

My Craftsman lawnmower only stays running when I keep pushing the prime ball. I've already cleaned the carb, changed the fuel lines, drained the gas, and the spark plug. What am I missing to make this thing run? It runs good while I am priming it.
