Continental F227 runs rough or quits when warm

Needing some help on an engine problem.

Starts great and runs for 10 to 20 minutes, then runs like crap and eventually will die. Will start again, but will barely run.

I just purchased this and it has hardly been run for the last few years. Maybe 20 hours per year. I drained the gas and put in new 100% gas.

Thanx for any and all!

Could be a ignition problem. Also could be the valves are set too tight.

Fact of the week
In March 2002, identical twins in Finland died on the same day in similar accidents within hours of each other. A 70-year-old man was killed by a truck while cycling; hours later, his twin brother was killed by a truck on the same road, about a mile away, before the family had been informed of the first accident.
