My 15.5 hp BS engine cranks and runs good for about 10-15 mins and then all of a sudden it quits running and is flooded with gas. Smokes so bad with white smoke you would think it is on fire. Want start back because it is flooded so badly.

Sounds like a sticking carb. float , but the WHITE smoke should indicate oil.. could be you have fuel in the crankcase from the flooding of the carb ... check your float and needle assy. for sticking ....be sure to check if oil in crankcase is overfull and diluted
