Dear Mr. wheel bearing, I have a Jubilee and experienced a similar problem. If you have ruled out all electrical/ ignition problems it's a good chance you have a fuel problem, like I had.
My tank was the orginal. The inside of the tank wasn't rusty. Instead, the coating, a gray primer color, was flaking off and choking up my carb. Remove the bolt on the bottom of the carb and see what comes out. I removed the two jets from carb and blew them out too. After flushing carb, it would work fine for a while. Then after a few hours of run time, full of gray primer like material in carb and sediment bowl.
Keep in mind, there are three screens that filter the fuel. One inside the tank connected to the sediment bowl, another above the sediment bowl and the hidden screen can only be found if you remove the steel gas line at the carb and remove the brass 90. Third screen is connected to the brass 90.
I decided to install an in line gas filter to solve the problem. BIG, BIG MISTAKE.
When the fuel temp reaches about 135 degrees, the in line filter will vapor lock.
After flushing the tank many times, I solved the problem by invested in a new tank from YT for a little over $200. The cost to coat the tank was about half that. Glad I bought a new tank.

On our first cosmetic restoration, not having a manual, we carefully marked the wires, taped the magneto in the position it came off, and were careful not to turn the engine over while we had these components off. We thought we could get by with this since the engine ran perfectly and would not need any internal work. After the cleanup and painting was done, we began reassembly and finally came to t
