    Replace the igniter. Many people on this site have had problems with aftermarket distributors, however. My recommendation is to use a Honda housing. I'm virtually certain your problem is a bad igniter. Here's how to do it:

    I figured it out.it so happens it wasn't the igniter or any thing in replacing parts and I found it by accident,the first wire on the igniter to the left when looking directly at it,the clip that connects to first prong on the igniter came loose and reclamped it and she restarted and ran fine until it got a little hot and died.the heat keeps expanding causing it to lose spark reclamped it fired right up.so before any one else has this problem try this method before replacing parts and thanks for all your help..

    Make sure you coated the back of the igniter and each male connector with silicone grease, to help dissipate heat. Be sure and slightly crimp each female connector with a pair of pliers.
