Don't what a spiller system is but I going to assume log splitter system.
What condition is the spark plug? Sounds low compression as I would expect 65-95 psi with an active ACR.

Grab the governor arm and manually try to accelerate the engine .
Listen carefully to it
If it starts to miss like it is running out of fuel, then that is what is wrong
If it sort of muffles and just stops them check the muffler for blockages .
If it sounds like the engine is struggleing then check the bypass on the splitter pump .

found stoppage in muffler, always forget to check that for equipment that does not get started all the time thanks for the help
