B & S 18hp intek engine OHV (vertical shaft) dies after warm-up I have cleared air hole in gas cap, replaced fuel lines and inline filter and all hose clamps. It starts and runs great, but dies after about 10 min. let it sit for a few min. it will start right up and run a little longer. Any ideas appreciated.

Hi,
About the only thing left is the fuel pump or the vacuum line going to it. Must not be "keeping up" as it mostly sounds. Actually, other than what you stated would make me suspect the fuel filter first, but you seem to have said you replaced it.
Peace,
Clarke
