There is a post here on this forum were the guy changed the carb with good results
 
Could be the ignition box is dying and once it's been running a bit, it heats up and fails.

The ignition box got swap or a new one just in case but still the same problem, so far it we stall bcz it dry no gas on it so it has to be carb problems

yeah i have read a few of them with carb problems and with a new carbs everything goes back to normal... the bad thing is that the carb is out of stock for a new one not even DDM have them on stock so i might have to wait or put a slight bigger carb which is better more gas flow... but yeah I'm still stuck
 
so I purchase a new carb and it came with new lines and filter so I replace everything , prime the carb pull few times all the battery were fully charge the engine started rite away , now I'm thinking great problem solve no i can enjoy my octane to the fullest when i gave it gas its stall , turn it back again give it gas and stall again I haven't touch the needles at all, should I play around with the hs n ls ? I'm really confuse about it. it should be a simple thing that its turning onto a nightmare....
 
so I took the engine apart to find the piston ring to be bad , so i try to get it out of ebay like always well its out of stock :(.
i read some of the forums again the ones that mention about the O.S. gt15 engine well is also out of stock nice way to end up the beginning of the week and happy 4th of July to every one :D
