sorry in the delay Tom , I lost my internet for most of yesterday. if you are thinking just an engine problem then firstly check the in-line fuel filter . If you can blow , in the direction of the arrow, through it without your cheeks puffing out then this is blocked , even if you can't see that it as blocked. You can also do this to the fuel pipe line from the tank. After that possibly stop solenoid , and worst case scenario water in the head. Just an egg cup worth of water can do this. Is it throwing out white smoke.?  If you think its when you are chipping then look at relays , loose wires , belts and/or blocked chamber all that may cause the revs to drop , no-stress kicks in and engine to cut out.

I'd start with the cheap things, maybe fuel but, if it switches off cleanly then I doubt it is that. Could be an oil pressure sensor going faulty, could be a water temperature sensor going faulty, if the battery or alternater is not good, then maybe the engine is being switched off to poor voltage not keeping the solenoid open? Ask your supplier to have a look.

It'll rev up normally and chip fine for abit then cuts out. My first thought was fuel but the fact it re-starts on the key and runs fine for abit confused me.

 

Thanks 

Had very similar problem with 150 it was ignition switch with vibration it would turn slightly and stop then you could start it straight away. 

Sprayed WD40 in key hole and has been fine.
