this craftsman yt 3000 21 horsepower cranks great , runs for about 30 minutes,,then just dies,,,after waiting for an hour or two,,,it will start, run for awhile and it dies again..anybody got some advice as to fixing this?

I bought a used Craftsman riding mower. the engine runs great ,,however, when I put it in gear and let out the clutch the thing takes off like its in 6th gear instead of 1st. anybody know what is wrong with it? this is a YT3000.
