My wheel horse tractor will start and run awhile then it stops. I have checked the coil,sparkplug,points,seat switch and most of the wires I can see. If I wait awhile it will start again but will stop running a little while later. I pulled the plug wire off when it stopped and there was no spark but let it sit a few minutes and it will start.

Sounds like it could be dirt in the fuel. When the engine is on it sucks the dirt into the jet and stalls it. It then floats down allowing it to start again and then cycle repeats itself. Disassemble the carb and clean and that should fix it.
Hopefully.

Welcome to TBN!!! If cleaning the carb does not fix it, you may find some more help in the Parts/Repairs section. :thumbsup:
