Re: Dies after getting hot!!!!

the pick up tube in the tank which is the pipe that goes to the bottom is more than likely split and sucking air as fuel is reduced during the day.does it run for another 2 hours if you let it cool down and if not refill the tank and see if that cures the fault.more than likely the pick up tube will be at fault though.
