Hop in, turn the key, it starts, and idles fine. Run it for awhile, and it dies. Crank crank crank.........No start. Get out, open hatch, unscrew fuel/water separator, tighten back up, starts and runs. Goes for awhile then dies again. Thought it was a plugged vent hole in the gas cap, so cleaned, and it ran better for awhile. Thought I had problem solved, but it just did it again. Ran with gas cap off, same thing. Any ideas?

That seems logical. Let me guess.........getting the tank out to clean it is a nightmare?
Not real good If it starts to mess up you can pull the cover on left side with the fuel pick up tube on it and if you are lucky it will be stuck to tube Can't remember which side air cleaner is on I think you have to remove to get to cover
