Have you checked to see if the plug is wet when it dies? Can you keep it
running by spraying fuel (use WD-40, not starting fluid) into the carb

?????? WD-40 is fuel....

Never heard of this method and would not use it.

WD-40 is a highly flammable petroleum distillate which contains oil.

Starting fluid contains no lubrication and consists primarily of ether
and flammable gases. In fact, it will wash any remaining lubrication off
of the cylinder walls.

I can and have even test run two stroke engines for short periods on
WD-40 without damage, though I don't recommend doing it very long. It
tends to foul the plugs due to the incomplete combustion.
