1550 Oliver wont run

Ive got a 1550 oliver that will run for about 30 seconds fine and then will just cut out and miss and just die.Then it wont start back up unless I wait for a while and then it wont start up still. It had a new distributor and the cap went bad but we fixed that what could be bad now.
 
Time for some trouble shooting. Every internal combustion engine ever built, regardless of fuel type must have 3 things in the proper order to be able to run. Fuel, compression, ignition. Those 3 in that order. Since you know it runs at times you assume compression is O.K. Ck. fuel supply. Once verified, ck. ignition (spark) and make sure the spark is arriving at the proper time. Good Hunting.
