Jeff, Had this same problem with an Allis-Chalmers combine engine. I kept looking at the fuel system, but the problem was the coil in the magneto. As soon as it got hot, it would fail. Thinking it was a fuel problem, I would remove the carburetor in the field, clean it, check screens, etc. By the time I did all this the coil had cooled some and the engine would restart. Run for a bit and then quit. I replaced the coil in the magneto several years ago and haven't had any trouble since. Don't know if your SM has a distributor or mag. Ours has a distributor. Anyway, as other posts indicate - the problem is fuel, air or spark and your job is to track it down! Isolating the trouble can be frustrating - suggest you work on one system at a time. Good luck. Keep us posted. Tom
