If you are talking about a lawn tractor with a briggs and stratton or Kawasaki engine you have over head valves that has not been adjusted and push rob may have fallen out or is to tight. Owners manuals will not tell customers this info all the time. I have been servicing all makes and models of small engines for over 19 years. Works at several dealers. And do it on my own now so i can help customers without charging arm and leg.

If it starts cold and runs for 10 min then it sounds like the fuel cap is not venting properly, try runnin engine with fuel cap loose and see if it dies. 9 times out of 10 the fuel cap is the culprit. Let me know

You most likely have a problem in the carburetor. It will need to be disassembled and cleaned. In regards to the backfire eliminator, you can remove it (caution, clamp off the fuel at the fuel line or you will be draining the fuel tank throught the carburetor. With the wire harness removed you attach two wires to the prongs and put one to positive and the other to negative and it should move. It should audibly click when it does, operates quickly.
I hope this helps, if any questions let me know.

The problem is that the float/needle/seat are not operating properly. They can not close properly to stop the flow of fuel into the carb and then into the engine. If it is a slow thing like it seems, you should buy a new needle and a new seat. Check that the float also has no fuel in it by shaking it when you have it out. If anything in it, replace it.
