Had a surge problem with my Cub and per good advice here I cleared that up and was plowing snow, ( 2nd gear about half throttle) I plowed for a couple of hours and it was doing fine, then it just up and shut off, it started right up and would run for a minute, or two then spit and sputter and shut off again, finally got it back to the house. I have all new ignition parts, coil, wires, points, condenser, and cap, points are adjusted and it starts right up, even in this cold weather like a champ. Sediment bowl is clean, carb has been cleaned, could is not hot, I noticed when I started it today, (25°) it started up instantly, with just a slight bit of choke, I let it warm up a few minutes, pushed some snow where we oark then began a run out the driveway ( about 200 yards) near the end of my driveway it goes up hill first pass no problem, on the second pass as soon as I started up hill it sputtered and shut off, restarted it and gave it more throttle and it seemed to work better, but not for long, again it sputters, then dies, fires right up and goes maybe 50 feet, shuts off....repeated this until I got back to the house. Sitting still it seems to run fine and does not shut off...really has me scratching my head. Help
