Hi and welcome to FixYa. I am Kelly
You are going to have to rebuild your carb and get a
GASKET & DIAPHRAGM KIT
One of your many diaphragms or gaskets is leaking even though it is clean all it takes is a pin hole to cause havoc!

Make sure to download this 8 page manual to help you with the carb repairs:

Just make sure you have good fuel flow to the carb fuel inlet from the gas tank with a good rate of flow.
When you finish it will work great if you did it properly. You will for sure have to adjust the fuel mixture screws after the re-build.
Thanks for choosing FixYa,
Kelly

the jets in the carburetor need to be cleaned out very well to operate this engine
the holes in the jets are very small and clog up easily with in a year or two
SOURCE: not getting spark when starting
[email protected] HI GRYDERT your problem could be your on, off switch. This might sound funny, but switch the on off switch real fast several times, then see if you havee fire. If not check your spark plug. If you have a n
ew one try it. If that don't work check the connection at the plug to be sure it is makiong contact with the plug. If all this does't work you will have to go inside to the coil. They don't usually go ba d but it could. But first check to be sure it isn't grounded at the small wire from the switch. Good Luck.

Sounds like an overheating problem.
Are you working in a well-ventilated area or in direct sunlight?
Check, if you can, the temperature of the motor case.
You might have to take a break more often.
This hot summer has stressed a lot of motors and electronics.
When it shuts off you know it is trying to save itself from burnout.
