If it runs OK for the first 10 mins, then cuts completely, I would suggest you have a coil fault - breaking down when hot. Not the end of the world - let me know if you need one.

no you dont mix two stroke oil in this - the engine is four stroke same as a car - straight petrol is all thats needed.
