But run it until it get thoroughly warmed up, shut it off, and it

clickety-click. Let it sit for 10 to 20 minutes (depending on the
outdoor temp) and it fires right up again. PITA at gas stations.

First, carry some water. When it fails, squirt the starter to cool it off.
{Or better, test at home & have hose...}

But even before.... does it draw current? Do lights go dim, etc?

I'd suspect: starter, connections to it, connections at battery INCLUDING the grounds.
