when it dies, have you ever pulled a sparkplug wire and turned over the motor to be sure its still firing. you need to this to insure its not sometype electrical problem that is shorting out your system after a short run time. new coil does not auto mean good coil, key switch, loose wire, etc: just be sure you are still getting fire to plugs.
