Mend Stihl 028 Shut Gas Start

whats wrong with it?

I have a older 028 wood boss. it first started to shut off when I would not be giving it gas, then would not start. I cleaned the air filter and put in a new plug. It ran for about 5 mins then shut off and now won't start.

may be ignition wire shorting on inside of casing which can be a bit of a pig to find
