The reason fuel issues sometime show up after running a while is possibly there is a fuel delivery problem to the carb. The bowl holds a certain amount of fuel. When stopped, or at idle, or under light load, the fuel is already in the bowl, and is being consumed at a lesser rate than it is coming into the bowl, so the engine continues to run. But once under load, it is possible the fuel is being consumed faster than it can refill the bowl, so eventually the level drops below the main jet, and the engine quits.
That's why you need to do the test which checks the flow through the carb by removing the drain plug. This can also be caused by a non vented tank, forming a vacuum and not allowing the fuel to flow, or a vapor lock condition from engine heat.
But... The coil, that has been replaced, and laying on the starter. It is possible the wrong coil could have been installed. If there is a part number on the coil you can research what voltage it requires or what the resistance across the terminals is.
Some coils require a resistor. If this coil needs a resistor, and there is not one, it will overheat. A normally operating coil will develop some heat, and pick up underhood heat, but you should be able to hold it without it burning your hand. Might be somewhat uncomfortable, but not hot enough that you recoil from it. If you have an ohm meter, the resistance across the coil + and - terminals, checked out of circuit, should be around 3 ohms for 12 volt operation. If it checks around 1.5 ohms, it needs a resistor, or replace it with a coil that does not need a resistor.

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
