HELP PROBLEM WITH 9.9

[rtharp4854]

I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH MY 9.9 MERCURY. THE ENGINE STARTS AND RUNS FINE FOR A COUPLE OF HOURS THEN IT WILL BACKFIRE AND STALL AND WILL NOT START (NO SPARK). AFTER LETTING IT SIT FOR 15 TO 30 MINUTES IT WILL START AND RUN FINE AND THEN DO THE SAME THING. PLEASE HELP. THE ENGINE IS A 1997 WITH VARY FEW HOURS. PLEASE HELP BOB.

NO THE ENGINE IS NOT OVER HEATING AND I DON'T THINK THAT IT IS THE COILS BECAUSE THERE IS NO SPARK ON EITHER PLUGS AND I DON'T THINK BOTH COILS WOULD GO BAD AT THE SAME TIME. THANKS FOR THE REPLY
