It could be a carburetor issue causing it to run too rich, which would make it stall and then not start again due to a flooded combustion chamber.

Try cleaning out your carburetor and see if that helps. :thumbsup:

When it does that again, check for spark. My pusher would do that. What happened is the heat causes the coil to expand, breaking contact.

Im thinking a coil here. next time it stops check it for fire at the spark plug..If it has fire start lookin at the carb. it may be a flooding situation.........
