John Deere 214 ignition coil keeps going out
low

I was gifted this 214, needed a new battery, carb cleaning, oil change, and then eventually I tuned the carb and it fired up and ran well for a bit, but after about an hour or so it shuts off (I think it's overheating). After I let it cool for a bit I can start it again, and after it shuts down 2 or 3 times it won't start again until I replace the coil. I'm on my third coil, and would like to get the root of the problem. Gas flows well, but maybe I need a new carburetor? It did sit for a few years with the previous owner. I'm not a mechanic, but I'm handy and good at googling, but that hasn't let me to the answer this time. Any ideas?
