Mend Homelite Trimmer Starts Start

My Homelite trimmer starts but wont stay started?

I can start my gas powered homelite trimmer but after 3-5 minutes its shuts off. How come?!?

Please see my answer under Mcculloch mt270x. As you clearly have a spark, its either bad petrol/oil or carb problems. Carb strip down and clean- maybe boiling will almost certainly solve problem.
