Mower stops running after engine gets hot (approximately 30 minutes)...Any advice?

Next time it happens check for spark. I'm guessing no spark, which means the coil is heat shorting, which means replace the coil.

Check and adjust your valves, .003-.005 intake, .005-.007

Check the rocker arm studs, etc., for tightness.
