Default Small engine repair question

The unit under test is a generator powered by an 8HP Briggs. I cleaned
the fuel tank, replaced the fuel lines and filter, and installed a
carburetor rebuild kit.

Engine starts and runs well for five or ten minutes, then stumbles and
stops. Starts up again with a single pull.

What should I be looking for?

Fuel restriction somewhere? Could be plugged fuel cap vent or a
filter.
