Default 2000 Yamaha 4stroke Starts then Dies

Hey all--

I am having problems with my 6hp 2000 Yamaha 4 stroke. The outboard will start then run for anywhere from 30 seconds to 5 minutes then die all of the sudden.

1) I checked the oil and it was suspiciously low so I filled it up.
2) I cleaned out my fuel tank and replaced with new fuel.
3) I bought new fuel hoses/connections
4) I checked the inline filter and cleaned it out.

Any ideas??

Thanks for the help
