This problem started without warning.
It cold starts fine, idles after initial warm-up. After about 15 min. It looses power quickly and dies.
A little recent history, all new within the last 6 months, Plugs, wires, alternater, battery, fuel pump and fuel filter.
I've run out of ideas, and hate the thought of throwing parts at this thing.

Have you checked to sse if it has fuel pressure and spark when it is dead? Does it restart or does it have to cool down first?

It still has fuel pressure, I haven't had time to check spark. It does have to cool down before it dies after a few attempts at getting it to run.

Thanks for your reply, I really want and need to get this thing running. Could it be the coils?
