Haven't tried the spark plug trick but it will start again after it dies. I can compression start it a few times as I'm rolling to a stop. If it only sits a few hours it will start, idle, and take off, but only a few 100 yards before dying again. If it is a fuel issue, what would cause it to die after running perfectly for over an hour, at speed and under load? (New filter, new gas tank sender).
