You'll need to do some diagnostics, catch it in the act.
It does sound electrical, as starting fluid won't start it, unless it's flooding.
Is there possibly a low oil shut down feature? It could be low on oil pressure, oil level, or the sensor is defective.
Other possibility is an ignition component overheating, but 5 to 10 seconds is awful quick.
Not sure what type ignition system it has. If it's magneto, there will be a kill wire that stops the spark. Disconnecting the kill wire will bypass all safety switches. That will prove there is a shut down signal, but you'll have to find the source, especially if it's oil pressure related!
If battery ignition, there will be a 12v supply to the coil. This can be checked with a test light. Loss of power to the ignition system can also be a safety switch issue.
The connection on the bottom of the carb is a fuel shut off solenoid. It opens when the ignition is turned on to allow fuel to enter the main jet circuit. It stops fuel from flowing through the carb when the ignition is turned off. It's purpose is to prevent engine run on when shut off hot, and to prevent exhaust backfire on hot restart. It can stop the engine from getting fuel, but it cannot stop spark.
The electrical system can be complex on those, and subject to vibration, vermin, general use failure. A shop manual would be a most helpful investment!
