Steve, when it quits when hot, that would be a good time to test the fuel pump to see if it is faulty by pulling the line off carb. and turning engine over to see if it is indeed pumping fuel. Remove plug wires and make sure leads will not spark in vicinity of fuel, direct fuel hose into clean container and turn engine over 10-20 sec's. observe weather you are getting fuel. If pump does seem to be working, hook all back up.
Now with fuel that was pumped into the container you are going to do another check, remove air filter assy. pour about a 1/4 ounce of gas in carb. throat, start tractor. If it fires up your problem most likely is a dirty carburetor needing cleaned/rebuild. If it does not fire up, I would check for good spark/compression/valve clearance, safety switches faulty,oil sensor faulty if equipped, etc. Check the attached trouble shooting links,instruction and guides,manual. Good luck.
I hope this helped you out, if so let me know by pressing the helpful button.
