Kohler CV16S 16.5 Hp engine dies after running for few minutes

Have a 16.5 HP Kohler on Craftsman rider that dies after running for a few minutes. Cleaned air filter and I adjusted the mixture to Full Rich to see if it would keep running. It barely runs without dying and always quits when the blades are engaged. Fuel filter seems to have a barely visible amount of fuel in it at any time, so I checked fuel line from tank and it is unobstructed and fuel flows freely. Fuel line from filter to carb is also open and unobstructed. (There is no fuel shut off installed) Could it be a fuel flow problem inside the carburetor? Have also heard that ignition modules can become susceptible to heat over time, but considering the fuel filter never fills with much fuel and the fuel lines are clear I still "lean" :laughing: towards it being a carb problem. Any thoughts or experiences with this? Thanks.
