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?

Stuck or misadjusted float.

Blocked filter ir fuel fitting at tank? Pull the hose off and do a
fuel flow test.
