Mend McCulloch 542p Runs Mins Start

McCulloch 542p only runs for 10 min?

The trimmer only will run for about 10 min's then it cuts out it will restart for a min. or so then cuts out then it will not start until its been left alone for a few hours. I have stripped the carb. the diaphragm looks and feels ok, no dirt in the carb. spark, and plug looks ok.
