Is the engine still overheated after a one-hour rest? Any tips.

Thanx,

I just had that exact thing happen with my 20hp Cadet. After MUCH work,
the repair people discovered it was a "bad coil" or something which when
heated up failed and when cooled way down was OK. I was told that they
had to pull the engine to get at it so the repair bill was pretty high.
Assuming no shenanigans (sp?), they did a fine job and I consider the
$ worth it. The machine is over 15 years old and runs like a top!
