The solenoid on the carb... Not exactly sure what that is, usually an anti dieseling/anti backfire valve that shuts off the fuel to the main jet when the ignition is turned off.
If that is what it is, and it is shorting out, could very well be the problem.
One way to check would be to unplug the solenoid and see if the engine dies. If it does, the short needs to be repaired or the solenoid replaced.
Even if it doesn't stop the engine, the short could be drawing down the voltage to the coil to the point it can't run.
Whatever the problem, the surest way to find it is to catch it in the act. As soon as it stops, be ready to check for spark.
I believe that model has a fuel pump, if so check the fuel flow. With the fuel line disconnected after the pump, start the engine, collect the fuel in a clean glass. The pump should deliver a full strong shot of fuel each time the pump cycles. Look at what you catch, if there is rust, trash, water in the glass, that will also be in the carb.
