QUESTION: yes it does it started up today after sitting all night  and it ran good. do you think i have a carb problem

Answer
Sounds like the pickup is getting hot and not working. The best way to tell is let it get good and warm until it quits running and wont start and check for a spark. If you have spark then remove the air cleaner and looking down the throat of the carb, turn the throttle and see if you getting a squirt of gas and then let me know
