Gets hot and the horse power cuts out and motor stalls. Not mine. Lookin to restore it. Is straight other than the HP/ motor issue. Thoughts?

It's free. If I can get it spinning with a new coil or switch its a steal.

It runs then stalls. Won't run for shit then refires. I asked if it was overheating and the guy said he didn't think so.

Could be, sounds like vapor lock too.
Fuel boils in fuel lines and arives at the carb as a vapor, carb is built to meter fluid so no worky. Move fuel lines as far away from heat sources as possible.

Check to see if the Distributor is bolted down. Common issue, the bracket that holds it down breaks loose and the damn thing jumps timing. That would cause the problem.

I've seen that with cracked coils or distributors in old tractors, sometimes vapor lock when it's hot does the same thing.
